DARLING: It's done. With just one large-scale HRA. It was an easy choice, no choice. It's there now. Protecting the most important thing from what's coming. I'll be there, inside. Locked in. Ready to be blown away. Commencing countdown, Major Tom. Ready for the journey-
[pause]
DARLING: To be Bowman, flying into the monolith... Ready to see... ...to understand.

Trivia[]
In this video, Dr. Darling references the 1969 song "Space Oddity" by David Bowie and the 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
- Darling's comment "Commencing countdown, Major Tom." is slightly modified from the line "Commencing countdown, engines on" in the lyrics of "Space Oddity," while Major Tom is a character who features in the song.
- The comment about Bowman flying into the monolith refers to the events of 2001: A Space Odyssey, in which scientist David Bowman journeys into the Monolith, a construct built by extraterrestrial beings, and experiences phenomena transcending ordinary human comprehension.
