There was a time when
"energy" was a dirty word. |
00:00:30.197 - 00:00:33.200 |
When turning on your
lights was a hard choice. |
00:00:33.534 - 00:00:35.827 |
Cities in brownout,... |
00:00:36.453 - 00:00:37.788 |
food shortages,
cars burning fuel to run. |
00:00:37.913 - 00:00:41.333 |
But that was the past. |
00:00:41.542 - 00:00:42.918 |
Where are we now?
How do we make the world so much better? |
00:00:43.210 - 00:00:46.880 |
Make deserts bloom! |
00:00:47.297 - 00:00:49.049 |
Right now, we are the largest
producer of fusion energy in the world. |
00:00:50.300 - 00:00:53.762 |
The energy of the sun,
trapped in rock, |
00:00:54.388 - 00:00:56.557 |
harvested by machine from
the far side of the moon. |
00:00:56.682 - 00:00:59.268 |
Today, we deliver enough
clean-burning helium-3... |
00:01:00.853 - 00:01:03.856 |
to supply the energy needs
of nearly 70% of the planet. |
00:01:03.981 - 00:01:07.609 |
Who would have thought that all
energy we ever needed |
00:01:08.986 - 00:01:11.905 |
is right above our heads? |
00:01:12.197 - 00:01:13.991 |
The power of the moon... |
00:01:16.076 - 00:01:17.619 |
the power of our future. |
00:01:18.245 - 00:01:20.539 |
Rock and roll!
08:32, Pacific Time. |
00:02:34.696 - 00:02:36.865 |
All harvesters running smoothly. |
00:02:37.074 - 00:02:38.951 |
Readouts are as follows: |
00:02:39.159 - 00:02:40.827 |
Matthew... 14.6 miles. |
00:02:40.953 - 00:02:43.664 |
Mark... 16.8 miles. |
00:02:43.956 - 00:02:46.166 |
