Moment From Independence Day
"I could have been at a barbeque!"
Captain Steven Hiller complains about what his day should have been like if not for the alien invasion to an unconscious extraterrestrial pilot he is dragging across the desert in his parachute.
On July 2, a giant alien mothership enters orbit around Earth and deploys several dozen saucer-shaped 'destroyer' spacecraft that quickly lay waste to major cities around the planet. On July 3, the United States conducts a coordinated counterattack that fails. On July 4, a plan is devised to gain access to the interior of the alien mothership in space, in order to plant a nuclear missile.
