...must aggressively venture into space to exploit the vast resources of other planets and asteroids. It would be the height of stupidity to ignore the opportunity while continuing to strip our planet bare. Space exploration is also an insurance policy for humans and other Earth species. We must colonize the moon, Mars and then other worlds to ensure that our species goes on should Earth suffer a cataclysmic disaster. William Hubbell Miami...

The original film, a cinema verite record of the group's tour by Albert and David Maysles, is a brisk rough sketch of A Hard Day's Night, which the boys started making later that month. Same dashing from train to limo to photo op to TV stage. Same use of wit as armor against imprisonment and ennui...
