 PART I AFRICA 3,000,000 YEARS AGO
 A1 VIEWS OF AFRICAN DRYLANDS - DROUGHT
 The remorseless drought had lasted now for ten million years, and would not end for another million. The reign of the ter- rible lizards had long since passed, but here on the continent which would one day be known as Africa, the battle for survival had reached a new climax of ferocity, and the victor was not yet in sight. In this dry and barren land, only the small or the swift or the fierce could flourish, or even hope to exist.
 a1
 A2 INT & EXT CAVES - MOONWATCHER
 The man-apes of the field had none of these attributes, and they were on the long, pathetic road to racial extinction. About twenty of them occupied a group of caves overlooking a small, parched valley, divided by a sluggish, brown stream.
 The tribe had always been hungry, and now it was starving. As the first dim glow of dawn creeps into the cave, Moonwatcher discovers that his father has died during the night. He did not know the Old One was his father, for such a relationship was beyond his understanding. but as he stands looking down at the emac- iated body he feels something, something akin to sadness. Then he carries his dead father out of the cave, and leaves him for the hyenas.
 Among his kind, Moonwatcher is almost a giant. He is nearly five feet high, and though badly undernourished, weighs over a hundred pounds. His hairy, muscular body is quite man-like, and his head is already nearer man than ape. The forehead is low, and there are great ridges over the eye-sockets, yet he unmistakably holds in his genes the promise of humanity. As he looks out now upon the hostile world, there is already
 a2
 A2 CONTINUED
 something in his gaze beyond the grasp of any ape. In those dark, deep-set eyes is a dawning awareness-the first intima- tions of an intelligence which would not fulfill itself for another two million years.
 a3
 A3 EXT THE STREAM - THE OTHERS
 As the dawn sky brightens, Moonwatcher and his tribe reach the shallow stream.
 The Others are already there. They were there on the other side every day - that did not make it any less annoying.
 There are eighteen of them, and it is impossible to distinguish them from the members of Moonwatcher's own tribe. As they see him coming, the Others begin to angrily dance and shriek on their side of the stream, and his own people reply In kind.
 The confrontation lasts a few minutes - then the display dies out as quickly as it has begun, and everyone drinks his fill of the muddy water. Honor has been satisfied - each group has staked its claim to its own territory.
 a4
 A4 EXT AFRICAN PLAIN - HERBIVORES
 Moonwatcher and his companions search for berries, fruit and leaves, and fight off pangs of hunger, while all around them, competing with them for the samr fodder, is a potential source of more food than they could ever hope to eat. Yet all the thousands of tons of meat roaming over the parched savanna and through the brush is not only beyond their reach; the idea of eating it is beyond their imagination. They are slowly starving to death in the midst of plenty.
 a5
 A5 EXT PARCHED COUNTRYSIDE - THE LION
 The tribe slowly wanders across the bare, flat country- side foraging for roots and occasional berries.
 Eight of them are irregularly strung out on the open plain, about fifty feet apart.
 The ground is flat for miles around.
 Suddenly, Moonwatcher becomes aware of a lion, stalking them about 300 yards away.
 Defenceless and with nowhere to hide, they scatter in all directions, but the lion brings one to the ground.
 a6
 A6 EXT DEAD TREE - FINDS HONEY
 It had not been a good day, though as Moonwatcher had no real remembrance of the past he could not compare one day with another. But on the way back to the caves he finds a hive of bees in the stump of a dead tree, and so enjoys the finest delicacy his people could ever know. Of course, he also collects a good many stings, but he scacely notices them. He is now as near to contentment as he is ever likely to be; for thought he is still hungry, he is not actually weak with hunger. That was the most that any hominid could hope for.
 a7
 A7 INT & EXT CAVES - NIGHT TERRORS
 Over the valley, a full moon rises, and a cold wind blows down from the distant mountains. It would be very cold tonight - but cold, like hunger, was not a matter for any real concern; it was merely part of the background of life.
 This Little Sun, that only shone at night and gave no warmth, was dangerous; there would be enemies abroad. Moonwatcher crawls out of the cave, clambers on to a large boulder besides the entrance, and squats there where he can survey the valley. If any hunting beast approached, he would have time to get back to the relative safety of the cave.
 Of all the creatures who had ever lived on Earth, Moonwatcher's race was the first to raise their eyes with interest to the Moon, and though he could not remember it, when he was young, Moonwatcher would reach out and try to touch its ghostly face. Now he new he would have to find a tree that was high enough.
 He stirs when shrieks and screams echo up the slope from one of the lower caves, and he does not need to hear the
 a8
 A7 CONTINUED
 occasional growl of the lion to know what is happening. Down there in the darkness, old One-Eye and his family are dying, and the thought that he might help in some way never crosses Moonwatcher's mind. The harsh logic of survival rules out such fancies. Every cave is silent, lest it attract disaster.
 And in the caves, in tortured spells of fitful dozing and fearful waiting, were gathered the nightmares of generations yet to come.
 a9
 A8 EXT THE STREAM - INVASION
 The Others are growing desperate; the forage on their side of the valley is almost exhausted. Perhaps they realise that Moonwatcher's tribe has lost three of its numbers during the night, for they choose this mourning to break the truce. When they meet at the river in the still, misty dawn, there is a deeper and more menacing note in their challenge. The noisy but usually harmless confrontation lasts only a few seconds before the invasion begins.
 In an uncertainly-moving horde, the Others cross the river, shieking threats and hunched for the attack. They are led by a big-toothed hominid of Moonwatcher's own size and age.
 Startled and frightened, the tribe retreats before the first advance, throwing nothing more substantial than imprecations at the invaders. Moonwatcher moves with them, his mind a mist of rage and confusion. To be driven from their own territory is a great badness, but to lose the river is death. He does not know what to do; it is a situation beyond his experience.
 Then he becomes dimly aware that the Others are slowing
 a10
 A8 CONTINUED
 down, and advancing with obvious reluctance. The further they move from their own side, the more uncertain and unhappy they become. Only Big-Tooth still retains any of his original drive, and he is rapidly being seperated from his followers.
 As he sees this, Moonwatcher's own morale immediately revives. He slows down his retreat, and begins to make reassuring noises to his companions. Novel sensations fill his dim mind - the first faint precursors of bravery and leadership.
 Before he realizes it, he is face to face with Big-Tooth, and the two tribes come to a halt many paces away.
 The disorganized and unscientific conflict could have ended quickly if either had used his fist as a club, but this innovation still lay hundreds of thousands of years in the future. Instead, the slowly weakening fighters claw and scratch and try to bite each other.
 Rolling over and over, they come to a patch of stony ground, and when they reach it Moonwatcher is on top. By chance,
 a11
 A8 CONTINUED
 he chooses this moment to grab the hair on Big-Tooth's scalp, and bang his head on the ground. The resulting CRACK is so satisfactory, and produces such an immediate weakening In Big - Tooth's resistance, that he quickly repeats it.
 Even when Big-Tooth ceases to move for some time, Moon- watcher keeps up the exhilirating game.
 With shrieks of panic, the Others retreat back, across the stream. The defenders cautiously pursue them as far as The water's edge.
 a12
 EXT CAVE - NEW SOUND
 Dozing fitfully and weakened by his stuggle, Moonwatcher is startled by a sound.
 He sits up in the fetid darkness of the cave, straining his senses out into the night, and fear creeps slowly into his soul. Never in his life - already twice as long as most members of his species could expect - has he heard a sound like this. The great cats approached in silence, and the only thing that betrayed them was a rare slide of earth, or the occasional cracking of a twig. Yet this is a continuing crunching noise that grows steadily louder. It seemed that some enormous beast was moving through the night, making no attempt at concealment, and ignoring all obstacles.
 And then there came a sound which Moonwatcher could not possibly have identified, for it had never been heard before in the history of this planet.
 a13
 A10 EXT CAVE - NEW ROCK
 Moonwatcher comes face to face with the New Rock when he leads the tribe down to the river in the first light of morning. He had almost forgotten the terror of the night, because nothing had happened after that initial noise, so he does not even associate this strange thing with danger or with fear. There is nothing in the least alarming about it.
 It is a cube about fifteen feet on a side, and it is made of some completely transparent material; indeed, it is not easy to see except when the light of the sun glints on its edges. There are no natural objects to which Moonwatcher can compare this apparition. Though he is wisely cautious of most new things, he does not hesitate to walk up to it. As nothing happens, he puts out his hand, and feels a warm, hard surface.
 After several minutes of intense thought, he arrives at a brilliant explanation. It is a rock, of course, and it must have grown during the night. There are many plants that do this - white, pulpy things shaped like pebbles, that seem to shoot up in the hours of darkness. It is true that they are small and round, whereas this is large and square;
 a14
 A10 CONTINUED
 but greater and later philosophers than Moonwatcher would be prepared to overlook equally striking exceptions to their laws.
 This really superb piece of abstract thinking leads Moonwatcher to a deduction which he immediately puts to the test. The white, round pebble-plants are very tasty (though there were a few that made one violently sick); perhaps this square one...?
 A few licks and attempted nibbles quickly disillusion him. There is no nourishment here; so like a sensible hominid, he continues on his way to the river and forgets all about the Cube.
 a15
 A11 EXT CUBE - FIRST LESSON
 They are still a hundred yards from the New Rock when the sound begins.
 It is quite soft, and it stops them in their tracks, so that they stand paralyzed on the trail with their jaws hanging. A simple, maddeningly repetitious rhythm pulses out of the crystal cube and hypnotises all who come within its spell. For the first time - and the last, for two million year - the sound of drumming is heard in Africa.
 The throbbing grows louder, more insistent. Presently the hominids begin to move forward like sleep-walkers, towards the source of that magnetic sound. Sometimes they take little dancing steps, as their blood responds to the rhythms that their descendants will not create for ages yet.
 Totally entranced, they gather around the Cube, forgetting the hardships of the day, the perils of the approaching dusk, and the hunger in their bellies.
 Now, spinning wheels of light begin to merge, and the spokes fuse into luminous bars that slowly recede into the distance,
 a16
 A11 CONTINUED
 rotating on their axes as they do; and the hominids watch, wide- eyed, mesmerized captives of the Crystal Cube.
 Then by some magic - though it was no more magical than all that had gone on before - a perfectly normal scene appears. It is as if a cubical block had been carved out of the day and shifted into the night. Inside that block is a group of four hominids, who might have been members of Moonwatcher's own tribe, eating chunks of meat. The carcass of a wart-hog lies near them.
 This little family of male and female and two children is gorged and replete, with sleek and glossy pelts - and this was a condition of life that Moonwatcher had never imagined. From time to time they stir lazily, as they loll at ease near the entrance of their cave, apparently at peace with the world. The spectacle of domestic bliss merges into a totally different scene.
 The family is no longer reposing peacefully outside its cave; it is foraging, searching for food like any normal hominids.
 a17
 A11 CONTINUED
 A small wart-hog ambles past the group of browsing humanoids without giving them more than a glance, for they had never been the slightest danger to its species.
 But that happy state of affairs is about to end. The big male suddenly bends down, picks up a heavy stone lying at his feet - and hurls it upon the unfortunate pig. The stone descends upon its skull, making exactly the same noise that Moonwatcher had produced in his now almost forgotten encounter with Big-Tooth. And the result, too, is much the same - the warthog gives one amazed, indignant squeal, and collapses in a motionless heap.
 Then the whole sequence begins again, but this time it unfolds itself with incredible slowness. Every detail of the movement can be followed; the stone arches leisurely through the air, the pig crumples up and sinks to the ground. There the scene freezes for long moments, the slayer standing motionless above the slain, the first of all weapons in his hand.
 The scene suddenly fades out. The cube is no more than a glimmering outline in the darkness; the hominids stir, as if
 a18
 A11 CONTINUED
 awakening from a dream, realise where they are, and scuttle back to their caves.
 They have no concious memory of what they had seen; but that night, as he sits brooding at the entrance of his lair, his ears attuned to the noises of the world around him, Moonwatcher feels the first faint twinges of a new and potent emotion - the urge to kill. He had taken his first step towards humanity.
 a19
 A12 EXT cave AND PLAINS - Utopia
 Babies were born and sometimes lived; feeble, toothless thirty- year-olds died; the lion took its toll in the night; the Others threatened daily across the river - and the trib prospered. In the course of a single year, Moonwatcher and his companions had changed almost beyond recognition.
 They had become as plump as the family in the Cave, who no longer haunted their dreams. They had learned their lessons well; now they could handle all the stone tools and weapons that the Cube had revealed to them.
 They were no longer half-numbed with starvation, and they had time both for leisure and for the first rudiments of thought. Their new way of life was casually accepted, and they did not associate it in any way with the crystal cube still standing outside their cave.
 But no Utopia is perfect, and this one had two blemishes. The first was the marauding lion, whose passion for hominids seemed to have grown even stronger now that they were better nourished. The second was the tribe across the river; for
 a20
 A12 CONTINUED
 somehow the Others had survived, and had stubbornly refused to die of starvation.
 a21
 A13 EXT CAVES - KILLING THE LION
 With the partly devoured carcass of a warthog laid out on the ground at the point he hope the boulder would impact, Moon- watcher and three of his bravest companions wait for two consecutive nights. On the third the lion comes, betraying his presences by a small pebble slide.
 When they can here the lion below, softly tearing at the meat, they strain themselves against the massive boulder. The sound of the lion stops; he is listening. Again they silently heave against the enormous stone, exerting the final limits of their strength. The rock begin to tip to a new balance point.
 The lion twitches alert to this sound, but having no fear of these creatures, he makes the first of two mistakes which will cost him his life; he goes back to his meal.
 The rock moves slowly over the ledge, picking up speed with amazing suddeness. It strikes a projection in the cliff about fifteen feet above the ground, which deflects its path outward.
 Just at this instant, the lion reacts instinctively and leaps away from the face of the cliff directly into the path of the
 a22
 A13 CONTINUED
 onrushing boulder. He has combined the errors of over- confidence and bad luck.
 The next morning they find the lion in front of the cave. They also find one of their tribe who had incautiously peeped out to see what was happening, and was apparently killed by a small rock torn loose by the boulder; but this was a small price to pay for such a great victory.
 And then one night the crystal cube was gone, and not even Moonwatcher ever thought of it again. He was still wholly unaware of all that it had done.
 a23
 A14 EXT STREAM - MASTER OF THE WORLD
 From their side of the stream, in the never violated safety of their own territory, the Others see Moonwatcher and fourteen males of his tribe appear from behind a small hillock over- looking the stream, silhouetted against the dawn sky.
 The Others begin to scream their daily challenge. But today something is different, though the Others do not immediatly recognize this fact.
 Instead of joining the verbal onslaught, as they had always done, Moonwatcher and his small band decended from the rise, and begin to move forward to the stream with a quiet purposefulness never befor seen.
 As the Others watch the figures silently approaching in the morning mist, they become aware of the terrible strangness of this encounter, and their rage gradually subsides down to an uneasy silence.
 At the water's edge, Moonwatcher and his band stop. They carry their bone clubs and bone knives.
 a24
 A14 CONTINUED
 Led by One-ear, the Others half-heartly resume the battle- chant. But they are suddenly confrunted with a vision that cuts the sound from their throats, and strikes terror into their hearts.
 Moonwatcher, who had been partly concealed by two males who walked before him, thrusts his arm high into the air. In his hand he holds a stoud tree branch. Mounted atop the branch is the bloody head of the lion, its mouth jammed open with a stick, displaying its frightful fangs.
 The Others gape in fearful disbelief at this display of power.
 Moonwatchers stands motionless, thrusting the lion's head high. Then with majestic deliberation, still carrying his mangled standard above his head, he begins to cross the stream, followed by his band.
 The Others fade back from the stream, seeming to lack even the ability to flee.
 Moonwatcher steps ashore and walks to One-Ear, who stands
 a25
 A14 CONTINUED
 unsurely in front of his band.
 Though he is a veteran of numerous combats at the water's edge, One-Ear has never been attacked by an enemy who had not first displayed his fighting rage; and he had never before been attacked with a weapon. One-Ear, merely looks up at the raised club until the heavey thigh bone of an antelope brings the darkness down around him.
 The Others stare in wonder at Moonwatcher's power.
 Moonwatcher surveys the scene. Now he was master of the world, and he was not sure what to do next. But he would think of something.

FLOYD:「Yes,as a matter of fact, I am.」
narrator:THE RUSSIANS EXCHANGE SIGNIFICANT GLANCES
FLOYD:「Is there any particular reason why you ask?」
narrator:b31
B20:「CONTINUED」
SMYSLOV:「pleasantly) Well, Dr. Floyd, I hope that you don't think I'm too inquisitive, but perhaps you can clear up the mystery about what's been going on up there.」
FLOYD:「I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I know what you mean.」
SMYSLOV:「Well, it's just for the past two weeks there have been some extremely odd things happening at Clavius.」
FLOYD:「Really?」
SMYSLOV:「Yes. Well, for one thing, whenever you phone the base, all you can get is a recording which repeats that the phone lines are temporarily out of order.」
narrator:b32
B20:「CONTINUED」
FLOYD:「Well, I suppose they've been having a bit of trouble with some of the equipment.」
SMYSLOV:「Yes, well at first we thought that was the explanation, but it's been going on for the past ten days.」


FLOYD:「You mean you haven't been able to get anyone at the base for ten days?」
SMYSLOV:「That's right.」
FLOYD:「I see.」
ELENA:「Another thing, Heywood, two days ago, one of our rocket buses was denied permission for an emergency landing at Clavius.」
narrator:b33
B20:「CONTINUED」
FLOYD:「How did they manage to do that without any communication?」
ELENA:「Clavius Control came on the air just long enough to transmit their refusal.」
FLOYD:「Well, that does sound very odd.」
SMYSLOV:「Yes, and I'm afaid there's going to be a bit of a row about it. Denying the men permission to land was a direct violation of the I.A.S. convention.」
FLOYD:「Yes... Well, I hope the crew got back safely.」
SMYSLOV:「Fortunately, they did.」
FLOYD:「Well, I'm glad about that.」
narrator:b33a
B20:「CONTINUED」
narrator:THE RUSSIANS EXCHANGE MORE GLANCES. ONE OF THE WOMEN OFFERS AROUND A PILL BOX. ELENA AND ANOTHER RUSSIAN TAKE ONE AND THE THIRD RUSSIAN DELCINES.
SMYSLOV:「Dr. Floyd, at the risk of pressing you on a point you seem reticent to discuss, may I ask you a straightforward question?」
FLOYD:「Certainly.」
SMYSLOV:「Quite frankly, we have had some very reliable intelligence reports that a quite serious epidemic has broken out at Clavius. Something, apperently, of an unknown origin. Is this, in fact, what has happened?」
narrator:A LONG, AWKWARD PAUSE
 b33b
B20:「CONTINUED」
FLOYD:「I'm sorry, Dr. Smyslov, but I'm really not at liberty to discuss this.」
SMYSLOV:「This epidemic could easily spread to our base, Dr. Floyd. We should be given all the facts.」
narrator:LONG PAUSE
FLOYD:「Dr. Smyslov... I'm not permitted to discuss this.」
ELENA:「Are you sure you won't change your mind about a drink?」
FLOYD:「No, thank you... and I'm afraid now I really must be going.」
ELENA:「Well, I hope that you and your wife can come to the I.A.C. conference in June.」
narrator:b33c
B20:「CONTINUED」
FLOYD:「We're trying to get there. I hope we can.」
ELENA:「Well, Gregor and I will look forward to seeing you.」

 ARIES-IB IN SPACE. EARTH MUCH SMALLER THAN AS SEEN FROM SPACE STATION
NARRATOR:The Aries-IB has become the standard Space-Station-to-Lunar surface vehicle. It was powered by low-thrust plasma jets which would continue the mild acceler- ation for fifteen minutes. Then the ship would break the bonds of gravity and be a free and indepen- dent planet, circling the Sun in an orbit of its own.

narrator:STEWARDESS Fine. Very quiet. He's been asleep since we left.
PILOT:「Well, no one can say that he's not enjoying the wonders of Space.」
narrator:CO-PILOT Well, whatever's going on up there, he's going to arrive fresh and ready to go.
 b35
 B22 CONTINUED
PILOT:「I wonder what really IS going on up there?」
narrator:CO-PILOT Well, I've heard more and more people talk of an epidemic.
PILOT:「I suppose it was bound to happen sooner or later.」
narrator:CO-PILOT Berkeley told me that they think it came from contamination on a returning Mars flight.
PILOT:「Yes, well, whatever it is, they're certainly not fooling around. This is the first flight they allowed in for more than a week.」


narrator:CO-PILOT I was working out what this trip must cost, taking him up there by himself and coming back empty.
PILOT:「I'll bet it's a fortune.」
narrator:b36
 B22 CONTINUED
 CO-PILOT Well, at ten thousand dollars a ticket, it comes to the better part of six hundred thousand dollars.
PILOT:「Well, as soon as he wakes up, I'm going to go back and talk to him. I must say, I'd like to find out what's going on.」

 PILOT ENTERS.
PILOT:「Well, good afternoon, Dr. Floyd. Did you have a good rest?」
FLOYD:「Oh, marvellous. It's the first real sleep I've had for the past two days.」
PILOT:「There's nothing like weightless sleep for a complete rest.」
FLOYD:「When do we arrive at Clavius?」
PILOT:「We're scheduled to dock in about seven hours. Is there anything we can do for you?」
FLOYD:「Oh, no, thank you. The two girls have taken wonderful care of me. I'm just fine.」
narrator:b38
 B24 CONTINUED
PILOT:「Well, if there is anything that you wnat, just give a holler.」
FLOYD:「Thank you.」
PILOT:「Incidentally, Dr. Floyd, I wonder if I can have a word with you about the security arrangements?」
FLOYD:「What do you mean?」
PILOT:「Well... the crew is confined to the ship when we land at Clavius. We have to stay inside for the time it take to refit - about twenty-four hours. And then we're going to back empty.」
FLOYD:「I see.」
PILOT:「I take it this is something to do with the trouble they're having up at Clavius?」
narrator:b39
 B24 CONTINUED
FLOYD:「I'm afraid that's out of my depart- ment, Captain.」
PILOT:「Well, I'll tell you why I ask. You see, I've got a girl who works in the Auditing Department of the Territorial Administrator and I haven't been able to get her on the phone for the past week or so, and with all these stories one hears, I'm a little concerned about her.」
FLOYD:「I see. Well, I'm sorry about that. I wouldn't think there's any cause for alarm.」
PILOT:「Yes, well, I wouldn't have been too concerned about it, except I've heard these stories about the epidemic and, as a matter of fact, I've heard that ten people have died already.」
narrator:b40
 B24 CONTINUED


FLOYD:「I wish I could be more helpful, Captain, but as I've said, I don't think there's any cause for alarm.」
PILOT:「Well, fine. Thanks very much, anyway, and I hope you don't mind me asking?」
FLOYD:「No, of course, Captain, I can understand your concern.」
PILOT:「Well, thank you very much, and please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your trip more comfortable.」

 B28 FLOYD VISITING ARIES-IB COCKPIT. WEIGHTLESS TRICK ENTRANCE.
 b44
 B29 ARIES-IB ORBITING MOON.
NARRATOR:The laws of Earthly aesthetics did not apply here, this world had been shaped and molded by other than terrestrial forces, operating over aeons of time unknown to the young, verdant Earth, with its fleeting Ice-Ages, its swiftly rising and falling seas, its mountain ranges dissolving like mists before the dawn. Here was age inconceivable - but not death, for the Moon had never lived until now.
narrator:b45
 B30 ARIES-IB COCKPIT - THE CREW AND DOCKING CONTROL PEOPLE ON THE MOON GO THROUGH THEIR DOCKING ROUTINE. THIS HAS THE RITUALISTIC TONE AND CADENCE OF PRESENT- DAY JET LANDING PROCEDURE. WE ONLY HEAR DOCKING CONTROL.

 B31 ARIES-IB DECENDING. SEE AIR VIEW OF BASE.
NARRATOR:The Base at Clavius was the first American Lunar Settlement that could, in an emergency, be entirely self-supporting.
 Water and all the necessities of life for its eleven hundred men, women and children were produced from the Lunar rocks, after they had been crushed, heated and chemically processed.

NARRATOR:One of the attractions of life on the Moon was undoubtedly the low gravity which produced a sense of general well-being.
narrator:b51
 B36 CHILDREN IN SCHOOL. TEACHER SHOWING THEM VIEWS OF EARTH AND MAP OF EARTH.


NARRATOR:The personnel of the Base and their children were the forerunners of new nations, new cultures that would ultimately spread out across the solar system. They no longer thought of Earth as home. The time was fast approaching when Earth, like all mothers, must say farewell to her children.

narrator:DISSOLVE:
 b53
 B38 LOW CEILING CONFERENCE ROOM, "U" SHAPED TABLE FACING THREE PROJECTION SCREENS. SEATED AROUND THE TABLE ARE TWENTY SENIOR BASE PERSONNEL.
HALVORSEN:「Ladies and gentlemen, I should like to introduce Dr. Heywood Floyd, a distinguished member of the National Council of Astronautics. He has just completed a special flight here from Earth to be with us, and before the briefing he would like to say a few words. Dr. Floyd.」
narrator:POLITE APPLAUSE. FLOYD WALKS TO FRONT OF ROOM.
FLOYD:「First of all, I bring a personal message from Dr. Howell, who has asked me to convey his deepest appreciation to all of you for the personal sacrifices you have made, and of course his congratulations on your discovery which may well prove to be among the most significant in the history of science.」
narrator:POLITE APPLAUSE.
 b54
 B38 CONTINUED
FLOYD:「Mr. Halvorsen has made known to me some of the conflicting views held by many of you regarding the need for complete security in this matter, and more specifically your strong opposition to the cover story created to give the impression there is an epidemic at the Base. I understand that beyond it being a matter of principle, many of you are troubled by the concern and anxiety this story of an epidemic might cause your relatives and friends on Earth.」
narrator:I can understand and sympathize with your negative views. I have been personally embarrassed by this cover story. But I fully accept the need for absolute secrecy and I hope you will.
 It should not be difficult for all of you to realise the potential for cutural shock and social disorientation contained in the present situation if the facts were prematurely and suddenly made public without adequate preparation and conditioning.
 b55
 B38 CONTINUED
FLOYD:「This is the view of the Council and the purpose of my visit here is to gather addition facts and opinions on the situation and to prepare a report to the Council recommending when and how the news should eventually be announced. Are there any questions?」


MICHAELS:「Dr. Floyd, how long do you think this can be kept under wraps?」
FLOYD:「pleasantly) I'm afraid it can and it will be kept under wraps as long as it is deemed to be necessary by the Council. And of course you know that the Council has requested that formal security oaths are to be obtained in writing from every- one who had any knowledge of this event. There must be adequate time for a full study to be made of the situation before any con- sideration can be given to making a public announcement.」

 THE PHOTOGRAPHES ARE TAKEN FROM A SATELLITE OF THE MOON'S SURFACE AND HAVE NUMBERED OPTICAL GRID BORDERS, LIKE RECENT MARS PHOTOS.
 A FEW SEATS AWAY, MICHAELS AND HALVORSEN CARRY OUT A VERY BANAL ADMINISTRATIVE CONVERSATION IN LOW TONES. IT SHOULD REVOLVE AROUND SOMETHING UTTERLY IRRELEVANT TO THE PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCES AND VERY MUCH LIKE THE KIND OF DISCUSSION ONE HEARS ALL THE TIME IN OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.

 B43 THE PARTY STOPS AT TOP OF TMA-1 EXCAVATION.
 A SMALL CONTROL PANEL MOUNTED AT THE HEAD OF THE RAMP. MICHAELS THROWS A SWITCH AND THE EXCAVATION IS SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED.
HALVORSEN:「Well, there it is.」
FLOYD:「Can we go down there closer to it?」
HALVORSEN:「Certainly.」
narrator:b62
 B44 THEY START DOWN WORKING RAMP
FLOYD:「Does your geology on it still check out?」
MICHAELS:「Yes, it does. The sub-surface structure shows that it was deliberately buried about four million years ago.」
FLOYD:「How can you tell it was deliberately buried?」


MICHAELS:「By the deformation between the mother rock and the fill.」
FLOYD:「Any clue as to what it is?」
MICHAELS:「Not really. It's completely inert. No sound or energy sources have been detected. The surface is made of something incredibly hard and we've been barely able to scratch it. A laser drill」
narrator:b63
 B44 CONTINUED
MICHAELS:「might do something, but we don't want to be too rough until we know a little more.」
FLOYD:「But you don't have any idea as to what it is?」
MICHAELS:「Tomb, shine, survey-marker spare part, take your choice.」
HALVORSEN:「The only thing about it that we are sure of is that it is the first direct evidence of intelligent life beyond the Earth.」
narrator:SILENT APPRECIATION
HALVORSEN:「Four million years ago, something, presumably from the stars, must have swept through the solar system and left this behind.」
narrator:b64
 B44 CONTINUED
FLOYD:「Was it abandoned, forgotten, left for a purpose?」
HALVORSEN:「I suppose we'll never know.」
MICHAELS:「The moon would have made an excellent base camp for preliminary Earth surveys.」
narrator:SOME MORE SILENCE
FLOYD:「Any ideas about the colour?」
MICHAELS:「Well, not really. At first glance, black would suggest something sun-powered, but then why would anyone deliberately bury a sun- powered device?」
FLOYD:「Has it been exposed to any sun before now?」
MICHAELS:「I don't think it has, but I'd like to check that. Simpson, what's the log on that?」
narrator:b65
 B45 INSIDE MONITOR DOME WE SEE A NUMBER OF TELEVISION DISPLAYS INCLUDING SEVERAL TV VIEWS OF FLOYD AND COMPANY IN THE EXCAVATION.
 SIMPSON The first surface was exposed at 0843 on the 12th April... Let me see... that would have been forty-five minutes after Lunar sun-set. I see here that special lighting equipment had to be brought up before any futher work could be done.
 b66
 B46 TMA-1 EXCAVATION
MICHAELS:「Thank you.」
FLOYD:「And so this is the first sun that it's had in four million years.」


narrator:PHOTOGRAPHER Excuse me, gentlemen, if you'd all line up on this side of the walkway we'd like to take a few photographes. Dr. Floyd, would you thand in the middle... Dr. Michaels on that side, Mr. Halvorsen on the other.... thank you.
 THE PHOTOGRAPHER QUICKLY MAKES SOME EXPOSURES
 PHOTOGRAPHER Thank you very much gentlemen, I'll have the base photo section send you copies.
 AS THE MEN SLOWLY SEPERATE FROM THEIR PICTURE POSE, THERE IS A PIERCINGLY POWERFUL SERIES OF FIVE ELECTRONIC SHRIEKS, EACH LIKE A HIDEOUSLY OVER-LOADED AND DISTORTED TIME SIGNAL. FLOYD INVOLUNTARILY TRIES TO BLOCK HIS EARS WITH HIS SPACESUITED HANDS. THEN COMES MERCIFUL SILENCE.
 b67
 B47 VARIOUS SHOTS OF SPACE MONITORS, ASTEROIDS, THE SUN, PLUTO, MARS.
NARRATOR:A hundred million miles beyond Mars, in the cold lonliness where no man had yet travelled, Deep-Space-Monitor-79 drifts slowly among the tangled orbits of the asteroids.
 Radiation detectors noted and analyzed incoming cosmic rays from the galaxy and points beyond; neutron and x-ray telescopes kept watch on strange stars that no human eye would eever see; magnetometers observed the gusts and hurricanes of the solar winds, as the sun breathed million mile-an-hour blasts of plasma into the faces of its circling children.
 All these things and many others were patiently noted by Deep- Space-Monitor-79, and recorded in its crystalline memory.
narrator:b68
 B47 CONTINUED
NARRATOR:But now it had noted something strange - the faint yet unmistakable distrubance rippling across the solar system, and quite unlike any natural phenomena it had ever observed in the past.
 It was also observed by Orbiter M-15, circling Mars twice a day; and High Inclination Probe- 21, climbing slowly above the planet of the ecliptic; and even artificial Comet-5, heading out into the cold wastes beyond Pluto, along an orbit whose far point it would not reach for a thousand years.
 All noticed the peculiar burst of energy that leaped from the face of the Moon and moved across the solar system, throwing off a spray of radiation like the wake of a racing speedboat.

narrator:BOWMAN IS STILL READING AND WORKING ON HIS DESSERT.
POOLE:「Dave, if you've a minute, I'd like your advice on something.」
BOWMAN:「Sure, what is it?」
POOLE:「Well, it's nothing really important, but it's annoying.」
BOWMAN:「What's up?」
POOLE:「It's about my salary cheques.」
BOWMAN:「Yes?」
POOLE:「Well I got the papers on my official up-grading to AGS-19 two weeks before we left.」
narrator:c12
C12:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「Yes, I remember you mentioning it. I got mine about the same time.」
POOLE:「That's right. Well, naturally, I didn't say anything to Payroll. I assumed they'd start paying me at the higher grade on the next pay cheque. But it's been almost three weeks now and I'm still being paid as an AGS-18.」


BOWMAN:「Interesting that you mention it, because I've got the same problem.」
POOLE:「Really.」
BOWMAN:「Yes.」
POOLE:「Yesterday, I finally called the Accounting Office at Mission Control, and all they could tell me was that they'd received the AGS-19 notification for the other three but not mine, and apparently not yours either.」
narrator:c13
C12:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「Did they have any explanation for this?」
POOLE:「Not really. They just said it might be because we trained at Houston and they trained in Marshall, and that we're being charged against differ- ent accounting offices.」
BOWMAN:「It's possible.」
POOLE:「Well, what do you think we ought to do about it?」
BOWMAN:「I don't think we should make any fuss about it yet. I'm sure they'll straighten it out.」
POOLE:「I must say, I never did understand why they split us into two groups for training.」
BOWMAN:「No. I never did, either.」
narrator:c14
C12:「CONTINUED」
POOLE:「We spent so little time with them, I have trouble keeping their names straight.」
BOWMAN:「I suppose the idea was specialized training.」
POOLE:「I suppose so. Though, of course, there's a more sinister explanation.」
BOWMAN:「Oh?」
POOLE:「Yes. You must have heard the rumour that went around during orbital check-out.」
BOWMAN:「No, as a matter of fact, I didn't.」
POOLE:「Oh, well, apparently there's something about the mission that the sleeping beauties know that we don't know, and that's why we were trained separately and that's why they were put to sleep before they were even taken aboard.」
narrator:c15
C12:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「Well, what is it?」
POOLE:「I don't know. All I heard is that there's something about the mission we weren't told.」
BOWMAN:「That seems very unlikely.」
narrator:POOLE Yes, I thought so.
BOWMAN:「Of course, it would be very easy for us to find out now.」
POOLE:「How?」
BOWMAN:「Just ask Hal. It's conceivable they might keep something from us, but they'd never keep anything from Hal.」
POOLE:「That's true.」
narrator:c15a
 C12
 CONINUED
BOWMAN:「sighs) Well... it's silly, but... if you want to, why don't you?」
narrator:POOLE WALKS TO THE HAL 9000 COMPUTER
POOLE:「Hal... Dave and I believe that there's something about the mission that we weren't told. Something that the rest of the crew know and that you know. We'd like to know whether this is true.」


HAL 9000:「I'm sorry, Frank, but I don't think I can answer that question without knowing everything that all of you know.」


BOWMAN:「He's got a point.」
POOLE:「Okay, then how do we re-phrase the question?」
narrator:c15c
 C12 CONTINUED
BOWMAN:「Still, you really don't believe it, do you?」
POOLE:「Not really. Though, it is strange when you think about it. It didn't really make any sense to keep us apart during training.」
BOWMAN:「Yes, but it's to fantastic to think that they'd keep something from us.」
POOLE:「I know. It would be almost inconceivable.」
BOWMAN:「But not completely inconceivable?」
POOLE:「I suppose it isn't logically impossible.」
BOWMAN:「I guess it isn't.」
POOLE:「Still, all we have to do is ask Hal.」
narrator:c15b
C12:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「Well, the only important aspect of the mission are: where are we going, what will we do when we get there, when are we coming back, and... why are we going?」
POOLE:「Right. Hal, tell me whether the following statements are true or false.」
HAL 9000:「I will if I can, Frank.」


POOLE:「Our Mission Profile calls for Discovery going to Saturn. True or false?」
HAL 9000:「True.」
POOLE:「Our transit time is 257 days. Is that true?」
HAL 9000:「That's true.」
narrator:c15d
C12:「CONTINUED」
POOLE:「At the end of a hundred days of exploration, we will all go into hibernation. Is this true?」
HAL 9000:「That's true.」
POOLE:「Approximately five years after we go into hibernation, the recovery vehicle will make rendezous with us and bring us back. Is this true?」
HAL 9000:「That's true」
POOLE:「There is no other purpose for this mission than to carry out a continuation of the space program, and to further our general knowledge of the planets. Is that true?」
HAL 9000:「That's true.」
POOLE:「Thank you very much, Hal.」
narrator:c15e

MISSION CONTROL:「I wouldn't worry too much about the computer. First of all, there is still a chance that he is right, despite your tests, and if it should happen again, we suggest eliminating this possibility by allowing the unit to remain in place and seeing whether or not it actually fails.」
narrator:If the computer should turn out to be wrong, the situation is still not alarming. The type of obsessional error he may be guilty of is not unknown among the latest generation of HAL 9000 computers.
 It has almost always revolved around a single detail, such as the one you have described, and it has never interfered with the integrity or reliability of the computer's performance in other areas.
 No one is certain of the cause of this kind of malfunctioning. It may be over-programming,
 c77

narrator:BOWMAN Not now, Hal, I'd like to talk to you about something.
HAL 9000:「Sure, Dave, what's up?」
BOWMAN:「You know that we checked the two AO-units that you reported in imminent failure condition?」
HAL 9000:「Yes, I know.」
BOWMAN:「You probably also know that we found them okay.」
HAL 9000:「Yes, I know that. But I can assure you that they were about to fail.」
narrator:c80
 C74 CONTINUED
BOWMAN:「Well, that's just not the case, Hal. They are perfectly all right. We tested them under one hundred per cent overload.」
HAL 9000:「I'm not questioning your word, Dave, but it's just not possible. I'm not capable of being wrong.」
BOWMAN:「Hal, is there anything bothering you? Anything that might account for this problem?」
HAL 9000:「Look, Dave, I know that you're sincere and that you're trying to do a competent job, and that you're trying to be helpful, but I can assure the problem is with the AO-units, and with your test gear.」
BOWMAN:「Okay, Hal, well let's see the way things go from here on.」


narrator:c81
 C74 CONTINUED
HAL 9000:「I'm sorry you feel the way you do, Dave. If you'd like to check my service record, you'll see it's completely without error.」
BOWMAN:「I know all about your service record, Hal, but unfortunately it doesn't prove that you're right now.」
narrator:Hal Dave, I don't know how else to put this, but it just happens to be an unalterable fact that I am incapable of being wrong.
BOWMAN:「Yes, well I understand you view on this now, Hal.」
narrator:BOWMAN TURNS TO GO.

BOWMAN:「I'm sorry about the misunderstanding, Hal.」
HAL 9000:「Well, don't worry about it.」
BOWMAN:「And don't you worry about it.」
HAL 9000:「Is your confidence in me fully restored?」

narrator:BOWMAN THINKS A LONG TIME.
BOWMAN:「Hal, give me manual hibernation control.」
HAL 9000:「Have you decided to revive the rest of the crew, Dave?」
narrator:PAUSE.
 c102
C118:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「Yes, I have.」
HAL 9000:「I suppose it's because you've been under a lot of stress, but have you forgotten that they're not supposed to be revived for another three months.」
BOWMAN:「The antenna has to be replaced.」
HAL 9000:「Repairing the antenna is a pretty dangerous operation.」


BOWMAN:「It doesn't have to be, Hal. It's more dangerous to be out of touch with Earth. Let me have manual control, please.」
HAL 9000:「I don't really agree with you, Dave. My on-board memory store is more than capable of handling all the mission requirements.」
narrator:c103
C118:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「Well, in any event, give me the manual hibernation control.」
HAL 9000:「If you're determined to revive the crew now, I can handle the whole thing myself. There's no need for you to trouble.」
BOWMAN:「I'm goin to do this myself, Hal. Let me have the control, please.」
HAL 9000:「Look, Dave your've probably got a lot to do. I suggest you leave it to me.」
BOWMAN:「Hal, switch to manual hibernation control.」
HAL 9000:「I don't like to assert myself, Dave, but it would be much better now for you to rest. You've been involved in a very stressful situation.」
narrator:c104
C118:「CONTINUED」
BOWMAN:「I don't feel like resting. Give me the control, Hal.」


HAL 9000:「I can tell from the tone of your voice, Dave, that you're upset. Why don't you take a stress pill and get some rest.」
BOWMAN:「Hal, I'm in command of this ship. I order you to release the manual hibernation control.」
HAL 9000:「I'm sorry, Dave, but in accordance with sub-routine C1532/4, quote, When the crew are dead or incapacitated, the computer must assume control, unquote. I must, therefore, override your authority now since you are not in any condition to intel- ligently exercise it.」
BOWMAN:「Hal, unless you follow my instructions, I shall be forced to disconnect you.」
narrator:c105
C118:「CONTINUED」
HAL 9000:「If you do that now without Earth contact the ship will become a helpless derelict.」
BOWMAN:「I am prepared to do that anyway.」
HAL 9000:「I know that you've had that on your mind for some time now, Dave, but it would be a crying shame, since I am so much more capable of carrying out this mission than you are, and I have such enthusiasm and confi- dence in the mission.」


BOWMAN:「Listen to me very carefully, Hal. Unless you immediately release the hibernation control and follow every order I give from this point on, I will immediately got to control central and carry out a complete disconnection.」
narrator:c106
C118:「CONTINUED」
HAL 9000:「Look, Dave, you're certainly the boss. I was only trying to do what I thought best. I will follow all your orders: now you have manual hibernation control.」
