Judgment Night in the Twilight Zone

This is judgment night in the twilight zone. The pilot episode presents one of humanity's greatest strengths, our need and capacity to connect to one another as a weakness. I find Mike Ferris' seeming conviction that he's going to go to the moon jarring. Do you think Ferris still thinks he'll be going to the moon next time? Or is perhaps speaking on behalf of humanity when he says, don't go away, see you next time?"
