to get new motherboards,
drives and software to Mars
as fast as we can.
- Right.
- Slow down, slow down, slow down.
- It's gonna take us weeks
just to analyze this data.
- Right.
But in the meantime, we've
gotta be working up a mission plan.
- Luke needs us now.
- Luke may already be dead.
And even if he's not, it's doubtful he
is going to be able to transmit again.
So... we wouldn't know
whether it's safe to land...
until we were almost there.
It's gonna slingshot around Mars
on its way through the solar system.
It could be retasked to take pictures,
read radiation levels
of Mars One base camp.
Wait, wait, wait.
We are getting ahead of ourselves.
You're forgetting the bigger problem.
The orbits are all wrong.
Our first decent launch window
is almost eight months from now.
Yes, but we can go earlier
and get there faster...
if we reconfigure the payload
for extra fuel.
- We've modeled that, Ray.
I've modeled it.
- On paper, yes.
never been tested in space.
- The ship can take it.
- Oh, "ship can take it."
I wasn't thinking of
just the ship.
You're right.
I know the protocols for a Mars
recovery mission better than anybody...
because I designed them.
And I'm telling you,
these guys can do it.
He's right, Ray.
We've got a real shot here.
Hmm.
Well. Give me an updated
mission plan by 0800 tomorrow.
You'll have it by 0600.
Let's go to work.
Chief, can I have a word?
Go ahead.
- I no longer have the right crew.
- What do you mean?
- Bjornstrom can be up here
on the next shuttle.
- Bjornstrom is a geologist.
He's good, but not for this. My people
just lost eight months of training.
This is a different mission
with a different objective.
- I haven't approved the mission yet.
- Yes, but when you do,
it ought to be given
its best chance for success.
I want McConnell
to fly right seat.
Oh.
Jim McConnell is no longer
on mission status.
- Yeah, because you washed him out.
He only had to pass
a few more psych evaluations,
but... he refused
to take them.
His wife was dead.
He didn't want to lay on the couch
and share it with strangers.
That was his call,
but I had to make one too!
It was tough as hell,
but I'd do it again!
For Christ's sake, Ray.
She wasted away in front of his eyes.
What was he supposed to do,
suck it up? Get with the program?
What was his crime?
That he showed a little emotion?
I couldn't trust him!
When Maggie died,
it knocked the hell out of him.
It knocked the hell
out of all of us.
But you know and I know
he's still the best we've got.
