Please state your name, Roland Grace. I just spoke up from a coma
I'm several light years from my apartment and I'm not an astronaut
I'm not an astronaut. I'm not an astronaut. If you don't go
you die. Where the rest of us The sun is dying. You
are the only scientist who might know what this is. I'm just a teacher at Grover Cleveland Mid
You have a doctorate in molecular biology. I need you to come with us
This is Project Hail Mary. The sun is not the only star dying
Every star was infected by its neighbor except one. Why? We don't know
which is why we build a ship to go there and find out
It's 11.9 light years awa. The astronauts die in space. It's what you Americans would call a long shot
Hail Mary. I get it. Who on earth is gonna sign up for this? If we do nothing
Everything on this planet will go extinct. You'll find a solution. You are my solution
I put the knot an astronaut. I've never done anything. I've never done a spacewalk
I can't even moonwalk. I
understand mistakes. I do. Uh my place is in the classroom. The world is counting on you
This might be very hard for you to understand. But some people are not good at things
You know who you are. You're gonna do great. I concrete in 5 hours
Objects approaching. Oh my God. So

little while. I'm

Let me do the thumbs up. It's close enough
