Payton? Pandorum, you ever felt the symptoms?
Of all the things to remember, why would you pick that? Were you thinking of the Eden mission?
What about the Eden?
You just had to remind me of the biggest **** catastrophe in space travel, the flight cautionary tale from Hell.
I remember-- didn't they have some kind of hypersleep malfunction?
Two years into their shift, one of their officers had a psychological breakdown. The doctors referred to it as ODS Syndrome, but pilots-- we call it Pandorum. It drove him insane. He became convinced that the flight was cursed. Evil.
What did he do?
He evacuated the ship. He launched them all into oblivion. Five thousand people sent to their death with one push of a button.
At least we didn't wake up floating away in a coffin.
Who says we didn't?
