1 Paris: We're skewing out of hyperspace at Rubilith. {the ship emerges into realspace, revealing a huge red planet}
2 Serron: Wow, it's like a whole new world.
3 Paris: It is a whole new world.
3 Serron: I mean, one I've never seen before.
4 Paris: I'll send out a press release to warn them you're here.

Imagine what it would be like to actually see a new world, up close, with your own eyes. Or to step on one and look around and go for a bit of a walk.

No, really: Close your eyes for 30 seconds and imagine it.

Wow.

2024-05-19 Rerun commentary: When I was young I used to dream about travelling to the Moon or Mars and actually seeing them with my own eyes. I would have leapt at the chance to be an astronaut and get on a spacecraft.

Having watched numerous science fiction movies involving spaceflight, now I'm hard pressed to think of anything more terrifying.
