歌曲歌詞
Good evening.
Three weeks ago, the American spacecraft Discovery One...
...left on its half-billion-mile voyage to Jupiter.
This marked the first manned attempt to reach this distant planet.
Early this afternoon, The World Tonight recorded an interview...
...with the crew at a distance of 80 million miles from Earth.
Our reporter Martin Amer speaks to the crew.
The crew of Discovery One consists of five men...
...and one of the latest generation of the HAL 9000 computers.
Three of the five men were put aboard asleep...
...or to be more precise, in a state of hibernation.
We spoke with mission commander, Dr. David Bowman...
...and his deputy, Dr. Frank Poole.
Well good afternoon, gentlemen. How is everything going?
Marvelous.
We have no complaints.
Well I'm glad to hear that. I'm sure the entire world will join me
...in wishing you a safe, successful voyage.
-Thanks very much. -Thank you.
The sixth member of the crew was not concerned...
...about the problems of hibernation for
...he was the latest result in machine intelligence:
The HAL 9000 computer
Good afternoon, Hal. How's everything going?
Good afternoon, Mr. Amer. Everything is going extremely well.
Hal, you have an enormous responsibility on this mission...
In any ways... perhaps the greatest of any single mission element.
Does this ever cause you any... lack of confidence?
Let me put it this way, Mr. Amer.
The 9000 Series is the most reliable computer ever made.
No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information.
We are all, by any practical definition of the words...
...foolproof and incapable of error.
I'm damned if I can find anything wrong with it.
Yes...
I would recommend...
...that we put the unit back in operation and let it fail.
X-ray delta one, this is Mission Control.
We concur with your plan to replace No. 1 unit to check fault prediction.
We advise you that our preliminary findings indicate
that your onboard 9000 computer...
...is in error predicting the fault.
I say again, in error predicting the fault.
Sorry about this little snag, fellows.
I hope the two of you are not concerned about this.
No, I'm not, Hal.
This sort of thing has cropped up before...
...and it has always been due to human error.
Well, I'm sure you're right, Hal.
Fine. Thanks very much.
Hal, despite your enormous intellect, are you ever frustrated...
...by your dependence on people to carry out actions?
Not in the slightest bit.
I enjoy working with people.
I have a stimulating relationship with Dr. Poole and Dr. Bowman.
I don't think he can hear us.
Yeah, I'm sure we're okay.
What do you think?
-I'm not sure. What do you think?
-I've got a bad feeling about him.
-You do? -Yeah. Definitely.
Still, there's no reason not to put back the No. 1 unit
...and carry on with the failure analysis.
-No, no, I agree about that.
Say we put the unit back and it doesn't fail?
That would pretty well wrap it up as far as Hal is concerned.
If he's proved to be malfunctioning...
