😎✨ Brilliant
If wives and kids didnt vanish, there wouldnt be any movies!
5:29 how can you have ‘real time communication’ when it takes light 12.5 mins (on average, depending on Mars’ orbital distance) to reach either end of the communications? Unless, they’ve found a way to implement communications via quantum entanglement?! Good VFX though!
i think what the best part about this short is that this short is humanity's first FTL and first contact and from the alien point of view, they were simply responding to a distress call and returning the "alien" back to his home planet. Nothing more. nothing less. Just being decent neighbors.
what do you mean "nothing more" did you not see his head glow!?
Obvious not 100% human guy was returned...
@@Luteole he was probably still human but definitely catalogued and perhaps got a tag on him to track our less advanced race. The same way scientists put tags on sharks to track them and study them
I'm pretty sure that guy's whole biology are modified to a few degree. Still him but with different hidden stuffs in him.
It would have been interesting if they had returned him back unharmed but due to the aliens sense of humour shrunk him to be only 5 inches tall.
very true their very culture and science is incomprehensible far ahead of us, either FTL was a sign of a species entering the galactic stage of diplomacy and colonization or it was a sign to keep closure eye on us for study@@BLOrtega
This is the alien equivalent of finding a fish that's accidentally jumped out of water and gently putting it back.
So acurate :)
Not quite... There is one thing that is different. You'll see what I mean on his temple during the hug. But very close I imagine.
Just give the time stamp no need to explain 13:45
@@Paulo-zr5zo Sorry. Forgot. Thanks!
@@naerbo19 We put trackers in some animals that we find, so I think its pretty accurate.
With Sci-Fi often depicting alien life as dangerous or villainous it's nice to see a more optimistic view of what our interstellar neighbors might be like.
Sort of Germanic or Scandi. They know how to say "no".
True this could become reality in the distance future
It felt painful to watch the astronaut looking at his family's picture thinking he was about to die far from home and loved ones.
Then comes the relief the aliens were actually there to help him return home.
Unknown actors,and maybe small budget and I'm no film expert but this felt like a blockbuster.well done.
I wouldn't say "unknown" actors, but yeah.
@@MacroAggressor werent they in Supernatural?
Imagine making first contact with aliens and the first thing they do is deport you.
Isn't that what happens at our border?
"You GO NOW..."
@@rachiesayd9423 No, we get all the drug runners and child molesters.
Would you want us messing up your perfectly good planet

Pilot: they told me to wear a helmet next time
I was so confused reading this comment, like "Did I write a comment for this?"
laughed so much :D
jajajajajajaja

😂😂😂😂
Four years later and this short is still one of the best I've seen in my opinion. I especially love the acting.
I absolutely agree, I saw lot of short film and this one is the best, the acting, the story, the realism and finaly the music (especially the french horn parts) are amazing.
Are you being sarcastic?
@@TheFantasticFreak Absolutely not
@@pageje67 I didn’t ask you, but you’re entitled to your own opinion.
The production values and special effects in these films are unreal, so well done! Great story!
He was caught exceeding the C speed limit, his car impounded and sent back home by taxi.
Insane taxi
Vulcan warp drive always has some flaws thats why star fleet uses warp nacelles
This is my favourite explanation
Mano, vocês são muito criativo zkkzkzkzkzkzk
Funny "umm well keep the ship boy you humans aren't ready for ftl travel and digitize him" then open a ftl worm hole and drop him off at home like they searched his mind
The notion that there are interstellar daycare workers out there who will put us back in our playpen when we manage to escape is oddly comforting.
And like, not even in a demeaning, 'we're more evolved than you' kind of way. They were just like, "Hey, no worries, let's get you back home. That was a remarkable first test! You humans are really something. I'm sure the next one will go smoother 😊"
Its like they went: *checks watch* "You're not supposed to make it out here until at least the year 3000, this just won't do. Here, let's put you back where you came from, we'll meet again, we promise."
How about the part where it was actually a replica designed to infiltrate an intelligent population?
haha yes it is
I took it more like a FTL flight caught their attention, made them take notice of us, where prior to that point we were probably just an uninteresting footnote in their catalog of known life forms.
It never gets old this film
I still shed a tear
Especially with trash studios are pumping out today
It's nice that there are still talented people who know how to entertain the fans and audiences
Nah. Portfolio film, you can't expect much.
lolwut
Did anyone else notice that after he was returned to the love of his family, that he no longer had gray hair? I love it!❤
Loved the moment of awe in face of the 1st contact. No communication, no visible alien. Just mysterious, incomprehensible, daunting.
Yes!
ALIENS ARE DEMONS!! READ YOUR B1BLE!!
@@xw591 reminds me of Contact
That's probably what we'll run into eventually. That or advanced species will go small and stay out of sight as long as possible.
One things for sure though, whatever Ethan came into contact with is *_HUGE._*
Aliens: Purpose of visit?
Pilot: eh...
Aliens: Do you have a valid VISA?
Pilot: eh...
Aliens: That's it. You are going back.
My first thought was "Yeah, Space-Police, that's it. He must have broke the speed limit" XDD
It's especially funny if you know that C is considered to be the ultimate 'speed limit' for space xdd
Haha I can imagine Space Police suddenly go to Earth explaining, giving course about space traffic rule.
Alien president: build that wall
So that was the alien right.....bcz I can see the crop circle on his head.. At the end..what a Easter egg
Top tier comment 👌🏻
This has been, is now, and most likely to remain my favorite DUST production. It shows up in my feed about every 3rd quarter and I never get tired of it.
Of all the short films on Dust this has to be one of the better ones. Well acted, well written, well directed. I wonder why it did not receive any awards.
lolwut
Finally making contact with alien life and they just casually teleport you back home like, "boi, you is not ready."
Lmao
Nice comment
Isn't that what 'enduro' said many weeks back ?
What, they speak 3rd grade English?
Mom! One of the apes escaped it's cage!
Well, put it back!
Build the first FTL drive: Extremely expensive.
Wear a spacesuit and leave the helmet on Earth: Priceless.
Not enough budget for the helmet
I think we have been in space for over 60 years already. and can go 35 light years easy, already.
Experimental ship: Steering with touchscreens, which have no feedback and are easy to press wrong "button" accidently
@@rafwiel OOPS GUI v0.1 nightly build :)
@@rafwiel TBH the UI disturbs me less. As a short-film it has to be visually packed to build up the story and style fast. Going out without the helmet, OTOH, is a clear Darwin Award mistake that stands out from the very first shot, and the only benefit it has on the short is that he can gasp when he is 3D printed from backup.
Who seeing this Video 😯 in 2024 ?

I have watched a couple of times i'm just wondering why nasa does not invent it to use instead of rocket engines ...
I re-watched and shared it in 24. Dust is some decent sci-fi.

@@lowellmartens6135 Yeah I love him. ❤️
Imagine what the director could do with a full budget. This was better than anything I've seen put out by Hollywood in years.

Hahahaha
I DIED LMAO
they are silently flexing on us
Ma man 👽
Whole idea of even the word alien let alone something like that existing is stupid. Don't think Universe have anything besides Earth, a sole planet with life which is unique in whole cosmos itself. If ot waa that easy people would've found it by now.
Most advanced ship ever and NASA has like 4 employees
and they require a human pilot to drive it
NASA is that a big bad joke
It’s ridiculous. Also he doesn’t have a seatbelt or helmet on.
@@edwardvinch4492 Budget Cuts.
It’s not just factory workers and checkout clerks losing jobs to automation in the future.
the ending is immaculate.. high possibility to happen on the first contact with higher type of civilization (type II of kadarshev scale)
no drama or even politics.. they just doing what need to do to scale up.. they find stupid human, and send them back 😂, this short movie made us think, what actually hold us back.
Better and more meaningful than dozens of full length Sci-Fi films I have seen. Brilliant...

It’s great that they integrated the Dyson Sphere concept into this! Shows that they really did their research!!
I've seen this little movie several times, but it still brings tears to my eyes when the aliens bring the man back
Aliens: "Interesting. This colony of trillions of bacteria invented a water-bearing semi-autonomous mucilage capable of manipulating atoms into a faster-than-light transport. We'll have to keep on eye on them."
Holy shit, I've never even thought of it like this before. I'm genuinely mad at myself now.
Hypothetical completely singular sentient beings would totally look at cellular organisms like some kind of colony creature. That's amazing.
This reply is too intelligent for YT i'm sorry to say
Absolutely Brilliant.
That is an interesting approach for sure
It's the obvious way to view Terran life forms. Mitochondria being the primary evidence.

Great again. Take time to appreciate control center set and lighting. Musical score is beautiful, very effective.
The sign of a far superior race is actually compassion, because they know they could easily terminate the accidental visitor.
Absolutely beautiful. No tentacled monsters. Just an advanced civilization that values all life.
even the bacteria inside him
it is kinda refreahing to see this take on aliens, every mobie know depicts ali3ns as vicious demons fromthe depth of hell
I feel like that is how a civilization has to be to develop that far. Type II or III will only be possible if every individuum fights for the same thing.
We as the human race will probably be able to do this in the future, but we are too arrogant and selfish. Either we die on this planet, or we manage to put our differences aside and unite@@lionstar3039
@@lionstar3039You are infact correct my guy. There’s plenty of studies that showcase as humanity has become more technologically evolved, our sense of empathy, compassion, etc has also evolved.

This is my personal all-time-favorite sci-fi short film ever. I loved every moment of it. I welcome the alcubierre-white drive and quantum entanglement communication... and the ring-like dyson sphere.... And the aliens' einstein-rosen bridge drive. And the strong emotional thread about disappearing and home-coming Wow! I have watched this short film almost every month since it was released! That is the REAL science-fiction!
Why? It went nowhere.
Heart warming story of aliens' 1st contact/act of saving a human astronaut from his experimental craft that's falling apart and returning him home to his family 👽💙
Space police of vastly more advanced species: "Go home humans, you are drunk!"
"Uninspected piece of museum metal garbage, no warp licence of any galaxy, doesnt know where he is, over speeding.. Nah its friday, just get him home, im done with paper work this week"
"Helmet is mandatory"
When Flight says "What is that?" I said, "Flight, those are the Vulcans!" :-)
You know it's these little moments that make the job worth it.

HAHAHA :D thanks m8 you did light up my day xD
lolololol that's a gem comment!!! hhahahahhaahhahahah
Because it was unregistered, You need to register all FTL drives with the galactic Federation. Only STL (Slower then light) drives are prohibited without registration
The only problem with Dust, the short films always leave you wanting more and more of the story. Another excellent showing in this short film!

Watch Star Trek. From what i know, this Is practically his lore
The answer is....just watch another. I did.
A heartwarming short Film I see for the first time these days, when there are many terrible accidents due to sudden acceleration of cars.
Gotta love that instantaneous communication--across 140 million miles or so.
There’s a reason behind that works
A fish flopped out of the river and ended up in a boat. The benevolent fisherman picked the fish up gently and placed him back in the river. The fish tells the story to every fish he meets. Nobody believes him.
no the technology should have worked perfectly. but this type 3 or 4 civilisation detected the ftl jump and took control of his ship.

They should make this into a full-length feature film about Man's first light speed ship and first contact
It’s called “Star Trek: First Contact “
This is it, no unnecessary violence, no gore, no intense scenes..a beautiful ship, a wonderful alien vessel and an open ending with the possibility of if they bring him home for good or evil.. reasons..Thank you..
How can a film that costs 50 grand ( guessing ) be far better than any 250 million dollar movie that Hollywood pumps out today ?
Well done keep up the good work
It certainly makes a change
That's only if he is physically there. That little holographic shutter in his face makes me wonder if that's actually him, or a replication of the exact way the molecules formed his physical form in OUR reality. Have a feeling he disintegrated somehow by the things he made contact with. Did they just break him down, then light travel his particles back down to his home? Plus, if we could travel near (not at the SOL) the speed of light and back, wouldn't time have passed very differently from his location to earths? Like, in the edges of the gargantuan black hole's event horizon, time and space are being warped so drastically that every hour that passes there equals 7 years back on earth. I'd imagine light travel affects in someway space and time in very strange ways. Did you know that even astronauts in real life that have gone to the moon and back, they've technically altered their own age in comparison to how time passes here inside of our earths gravity. A certain one, can't recall his name but famous. After he came back, he was actually a 6th of a year younger than he was when he went into outer space. So technically traveling at the speed of light is time travel.
@@waynehewett4017 very true
Good or evil? That's a tendency towards generalization, there is no good or evil only perspectives, all species consist of individual minds..
You mean negative or positive intends, which is different.
NASA is gonna be mad when they realize they aren’t getting their ship back.
NASA: "Well did you at least learn anything from them? Some new technology?"
Pilot: "Uh, no."
NASA: "Well what did they look like at least?"
Pilot: "Yeah, about that.."
Their fault for planning sequential jumps. I would have had engineers on Mars to do an immediate full analysis of every system.
I'm sure they insured it, plus they probably built two of them anyway.

When flying around in space with your flight suit on, you should always have your helmet on.

Just rewatched this and had recently re-read Larry Niven's Ringworld series. The first and only Type 2 hyperdrive ship in that series, traveling a light-year in 1 ½ minute, was named "Long Shot."
Don't know if it was meant as an homage but I'll take it as one.
This would be a huge blockbuster hit. It was a great first encounter film. Would love to see what happens next. Make it so.

I really enjoyed this. I LOVE that adorable mischievous troublemaker Ty Olsson! Uugghh I want more! I want a movie or miniseries made out of this! Like, immediately. That said, I really enjoy reading these comments and people's theories about what might've happened. You guys are pretty clever! That's the beauty of these short films. They're so open to ideas and interpretation and friendly debate.
I was waiting for the punchline. "What happened?" "I got a speeding ticket."

Caught doing warp 3 in a warp 1 zone.

This was great. It is nice to see a Si-Fi story that isn't a horror story.
That is true. Just wish they had told more of a story.
@@nighthawk0077 The next day he awakes strapped to a gurney and is dissected on a secret floating US prison ship. They cut it before that because it wasn't so uplifting.
Well, it still kind of is, albeit very lowkey. For one, first contact, which is always going to be a scary scary thing, throwing out everything we knew about ourselves and the universe. They brought him back, but as seen in the last few shots, he is changed, how? We don't know. Maybe he is now their first ambassador. Maybe the aliens only waited for us or any other species to make the barrier past FTL.
Its not outright horror, but its definitely spooky.
@@Busterdrag yes, a more high brow, existential sort of horror.
Might still be horror, the Kane that was returned home isn't the original Kane. That holographic shimmer on his temple at 13:48 suggests that...
He travels to Mars in 3 minutes using a warp drive, but when he arrives, the command center is able to talk to him instantly. That makes no sense! Radiowaves travel at the speed of light - it should take anywhere from 6 to 40 minutes for Earth to hear his response.
FTL needs to have a second part. It really does.

When the cops claim you were "speeding," but you know they just pulled you over cause you're human.
This is basically the first 10 minutes and the last 5 minutes of a scifi film that ran out of budget 1 week into filming 😂
They just left out all the boring filler and contrived conflict between the cast :)
nice portfolio
And the part where the all knowing sentient being starts a condescending diatribe about how we are not ready both intellectually and technically
Kind of like Farscape. lol
The big name actors really do make the difference.
They add a certain halo effect.
i absolutely love the fact that this first contact wasn't violent at all in any way, but a glimpse at the wisdom of a civilization whom are which far more advanced than our own, return a being to its home world, preserving life, as they know how precious it is.
also laughing at the thought that when the Alien civilization first picks up the prototype on its sensors and scans it upon contact they surely must have noticed that it was experimental for us and a misfire happened and they were all like: "well let's take him back asap, they must surely be worried, im sure they can recreate the ship, we can leave it for safe keeping and a nod to them when they eventually make it back."
I can watch this short film over and over. The quality is extremely good. Good story and very nice music. Good actors. The best short SF Dust film I have seen sofar. A must for SF fans.

I had a lot of questions when he reappeared after his warpdrive failed and wound up in front of that bright circle thing. Was that a dyson Sphere in the far back? that is amazing. I'd love to see a full lenght movie about such like this, something like Moonfall but without killer aliens and such. I like that he returned to his family the way he did.
The acting was quite good, in that the characters weren't annoying stereotypes.
In today's episode of space-friend we rescued a cute, stray human and brought him back to his family after a 21 hour flight to earth. Like and Subscribe, and hit the bell for notifications.
It took that long to find out how to manipulate the captured snapshot they got of him using their teleporter-like beam and merge it then with something from them, what they use to gather information about the unknown species humans or infect the species. The manipulated snapshot then gets delivered back to his family. Now they have a backup of him and can materialize a duplicate of him whenever they want and perform every test they want without anybody noticing. Great job (y) Dont believe me? Look at his face at minute 13:50

Aliens: "Lol, humans don't have DRM...let's make a copy!"
No one mentioning the hauntingly beautiful soundtrack ???
Absolutely NO time dilation effects. That aside, this was pretty good.
I like that the aliens have evolved beyond communication. His last thought was wanting to be with his family so that’s where they placed him
Thought, the original machine language!
@Nancy Trumpelosi Lol. This film was so bad that I'm worried my IQ has dropped a few points but your comment had me cracking up. Great sense of humor. I actually laughed. 😂 Thanks
If i had a thought of destroying them...i wonder what would have happened with me....
@Nancy Trumpelosi I think the aliens purposely brought him there to check out the ship.
@Nancy Trumpelosi What if he was thinking of heaven?
Would they place his consciousness into the matrix?
this has better visual effects then most hollywood movies
Agreed. It was a very well produced film with a solid plot line and good continuity. The only issue I found with it was the "background" music was as loud as the dialogue making it very hard to hear the people talking.
@@gnuthad yeah, you are right, but the plot was pretty simple, I think it was more of an idea than a plot.
@@badjoke7482 The plot was rather simple but it doesn't need to be extra complex to be a plot instead of an idea. That said, even that simple plot line was better than a number of Hollywood movies of late. :-)
@@gnuthad Hollywood and specially Netflix movies are complete social justice garbage. They are un-watchable.
no, it has not
the crystal boys were so kind to bring the lost space man right back to his house
I absolutely loved this one, wish we could have more.
The most amazing thing about this film was that they were able to communicate in real time between mars and earth
Someone already said this in a comment on someone else’s comment but they were using quantum entanglement radio. No, I don’t know how it works, but that’s the explanation
@@thefatherinthecave943 Well, if they test a FTL-drive, they might as well have such a communication method. It's always easier to send only information via quantum entanglement than a big body like a space ship with FTL-speed
@@silberfuchsag4746 a lot of people don't understand quantum entaglement.. first rule of the universe is that nothing can travel faster than light, not even information. A way to circumvent this and do FTL travel is to bend the space around an object to shorten the distance without going faster than light, which is what they've done here. since information cannot travel faster than light, real time communication that is faster than light is literally impossible, unless they found a way to bend the space around the information while being sent which is yet another impossibility in itself.
they broke laws of physics for that
@@paopao.
Quantum entanglement is a physical phenomenon that occurs when a pair or group of particles is generated, interact, or share spatial proximity, it basically means whatever property changes happen to one particle happens to the other instantly no matter the distance speed, or material. in this case, one particle is in the satellite as a receiver or ship and the other is on earth as a speaker
this is beautiful , there should be movies about this sort alot more , i love these kind of movies so much and id never get sick of watching them
Marvelous film. One nitpick, and it's one which so many sci-fi shows and films get wrong, not just this one - your ship may travel faster than light, but radio waves do not. Instantaneous two-way communication between here and Mars doesn't exist. They'd have to wait about 12-15 minutes for a response after each message.
I also clocked that. However, I’m just going to pretend that they already knew that and just cut to the scene once they had all finished waiting for the first communication to reach earth.
Well, they said they were using a quantum entanglement device to communicate, which if possible would allow instantaneous communication regardless of distance. Using QE for communication isn't possible, at least as far as we know now, but yeah this is a sci-fi movie. On top of this, you aren't going to go 1.25C, universe says no.
When u realise u just need 3 guys and 1 girl to control the whole mission room and a single pilot to travel faster than light
AI tech maybe? so you dont need much human :P
When most people can work from home thanks to high speed internet...
And at the same time there is NO WAY to do the mission without a human pressing the "deploy real-time-drone"-button on location
Okay since this is a movie let's say it's all thanks to quantum mechanics and since no one has the knowledge to argue the problem is solved :))
Shit I run ops in ksp alone. Now in ksp2 we got multiplayer.
Type3Civ: Sir, we have detected FTL device in Sol by Human.
Type3Civ leader: Pull it here. Let's see what they made. Return the puppy.
Heheh i imagine this could have happened, although they didnt exactly return the puppy, as indicated by superficial patch of lights when the protagonist was hugging his family at the last scene..

I’ve watched this about 15 times over the past few years, it’s just so damned good.
human male : Hey I traveled faster than light
Aliens : You forgot your helmet! (they return him home with a warning)
Oh I understand 😂😂😂😂
Haha lol
It's intergalactic traffic police!
Absolutely. As the "glass" in his ship starts cracking the spacesuit he's wearing has this funny ring around it at approximately neck level. What in the world was that for? 😏 Nicely done short though. I'm subscribing.
Tonight on aliens funny videos, we found a guy in a spaceship without his helmet.....HA, Ha, Ha,.....! We took him back home, we are sure we will see him again....!
I love this.
That moment of things going wrong, reassuring the fears of space travel.
The first contact.
The fact we know nothing and that's what's terrifying, and yet they seem to acknowledge what's going on, perhaps reminiscing from their own kinds past mistakes.
So its like a bruh moment
This was surprisingly good, especially the First Contact part. I would love to see this become an actual movie or "Feature Film".
