Colonel Everett Young:
There's a rumor spreading that we're still here.

Dr. Nicholas Rush:
We are. Destiny needed all its power reserves to protect itself, and us.

Eli Wallace:
Uh, guys? We're *in* the star.

Colonel Everett Young:
That can't be right. We're talkin' thousands of degrees.

Dr. Nicholas Rush:
Well, we've just flown through the corona, which is even hotter, to say nothing of magnetic fields, gravitational stresses. This is what Destiny intended from the moment it entered this star system.

Colonel Everett Young:
You're telling me it flew into the sun on purpose?

Dr. Nicholas Rush:
Yes.

Colonel Everett Young:
Why?

Dr. Nicholas Rush:
To replenish its reserves.

Colonel Everett Young:
You're telling me this ship...

Dr. Nicholas Rush:
The ship is powered by the stars themselves. Solar powered, quite literally. There is no other explanation.
