Activate laser.

Prepare to

destroy spacecraft.

You see, my dear Bond,

we're well able

to protect ourselves

against all enemies.

Allow me to introduce you

to the airlock chamber.

Observe, Mr. Bond, your route

from this world to the next.

And you, Dr. Goodhead.

Your desire to be

America's first

woman in space

will shortly be fulfilled.

Leaving you on

your flying stud farm,

conceiving your

new master race?

If you like, yes.

And of course,

anyone not measuring up

to your standards of

physical perfection

will be exterminated.

DRAX:
Certainly.

Interesting.

Most interesting.

Jaws, expel them.

Jaws! You obey me!

Expel them!

Hold them!

Sir, U. S. spacecraft,

three minutes to intercept.

Stand by to laser it.

MAN 1 ON PA:

Initiate firing sequence.

MAN 2 ON PA:
Initiating.

WOMAN ON PA:
U. S.

spacecraft in laser range,

25. 5 and closing.

Range 15.

Range 10.

MAN 1:
Prepare to fire.

Five, four, three, two...

It's stopped rotating.

Open the cargo doors.

Number one platoon, EVA.

Number one platoon, EVA.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER ON RADIO)

Let's try docking.

MAN:
Colonel Scott will

take the first landing!

TECHNICIAN:
Intruders

have docked at satellite

seven, sir.

DRAX:
Double the guard

at every entrance

in this satellite.

Report intruders' progress

throughout the space station.

Number three globe

ready for launching, sir.

Proceed!

(GLOBE LAUNCHING)

MAN ON PA:

Group One, attack enemy.

All units shoot to kill.

Colonel Scott,

don't shoot.

Hold your fire.

MAN ON PA:

Corridor five penetrated.

Intruders advancing on

Command satellite.

Maintenance crew needed,

section three.

(ALARM BLARING)

(SCREAMING)

(CRASHING)

At least I shall

have the pleasure

of putting you

out of my misery.

Desolated, Mr. Bond?

(GROANING)

Heartbroken, Mr. Drax.

(GASPING)

Allow me.

Take a giant

step for mankind.

(SCREAMING)

Where's Drax?

Oh, he had to fly.

How's Scott doing?

He's got control

of the Command satellite.

We put the launching gear

for the globes out of action.

When the station breaks up,

they'll disintegrate.

They'll harm no one.

But the three that have gone,

they'll kill millions.

Those three

must be destroyed.

Come on!

Colonel, get your men off

as quickly as possible.

Your mission is completed.

Sergeant, round up your men,

get them back to the shuttle.

Fast!

Back to the shuttle,

everybody!

On the double!

Moonraker Five,

that's the answer.

Drax's shuttle is

armed with a laser.

We can track those globes

and destroy them.

It's hopeless, sir.

The corridor's blocked.

They can't get to us now.

All right, let's go.

Docking release

system is jammed.

Release the door lock.

I'll see if I can

operate it manually.

It's jammed too.

Well, here's to us.

Jaws, we can't disengage.

The docking release

system is jammed.

Can you help us?

We're free.

Don't worry,

they'll make it.

It's only 100 miles to Earth.

Let's get a read-out

on those globes.

(EXPLOSION)

I have the three globes

on the screen.

We should have

a visual in a minute.

There it is.

The laser's on automatic.

Code 945 set.

One down, two to go.

Number two straight ahead.

What is it?

We're skipping on

the Earth's atmosphere.

In range.

We should see

the last one soon.

There it is.

It's getting hot.

It can't be helped.

I'm coming in

at a steeper angle

than I should

in order to catch

that last globe.

I can't hold this

course much longer.

We'll break up

at 200,000 feet.

Just a few seconds more.

Automatic firing

system negative.

Must be the heat.

Switching to manual.

Controls aren't responding.

The wings are

beginning to glow.

Just hold her steady.

Steady.

GOODHEAD:
It's entering

Earth's atmosphere!

James, this is

our last chance.

Steady.

Colonel Scott

reports picking up

two survivors from

the space station,

a tall man and

a short blonde woman.

Right. Okay.

Dr. Goodhead reported

their position 20 minutes ago.

They're just coming into

range of our tracking ship

in the Pacific Ocean.

We should have audiovisual

within a few minutes

from the remote

onboard TV monitors.

MAN ON RADIO:

Houston calling Dr. Goodhead.

Houston calling.

Confirm your position.

As this is the first

joint venture between

our two countries,

I'm having it

patched directly

to the White House

and Buckingham Palace.

Well, I'm sure Her Majesty

will be fascinated.

MAN:
We have audiovisual.

Ah, at last.

(PEOPLE MURMURING)

(SOFTLY) 007.

My God, what's Bond doing?

I think he's attempting

re-entry, sir.

James?

I think it may be

time to go home.

Take me round the world

one more time.

Why not?

Where are you?

Why do you hide?

Where is that moonlight trail

That leads to your side?

Just like the Moonraker goes

In search of his dream of gold

I search for love

For someone to have and hold

I've seen your smile

In a thousand dreams

Felt your touch

And it always seems

You love me

Where are you?

When will we meet?

Take my unfinished life

And make it complete

Just like the Moonraker knows

His dream will

come true someday

I know that you

Are only a kiss away

I've seen your smile

In a thousand dreams

Felt your touch

And it always seems
