Quotes[]

  • Narrator: The story you are about to see has not happened. Yet. These are scenes from that story, a story that will happen when Man has built a space station orbiting above the earth. A station that will be a research center in which dedicated people such as these will conduct experiments in many sciences for the benefit of mankind. This is the story of an experiment plunging out of control, endangering the lives of those aboard the space station.

....

  • Colonel Edward McCauley: Doc, let me explain something to you. This station that you’re going to is a big wheel spinning around a thousand miles in space. Everything aboard is artificial. The water we drink, air we breathe, even gravity. Something we can’t fake is the ability of one man to get along with another.

....

  • Colonel Edward McCauley: Sam, I’m sorry to disagree with you. But when those two cool, detached scientific minds get within radar distance of each other, it makes the Hatfield-McCoy feud seem more friendly than Damon and Pythias.
