Anecdotes
In the film, Jose Hernandez worked on anti-ICBM missile defense (once called "star wars") while at LLL. He found and solved a problem that saved the project's funding.

Jose Hernandez was also a LLL co-inventor of the digital mammogram. In a 15 September 2023 SF Chronicle interview, Jose considers it to be one of his greatest achievements for the many lives saved.

This didn't make it into the film, but is worth celebrating.

Gaffes
Hernandez was not accepted into NASA until 2004.

In the movie he is already in training when the shuttle crashes, which occurred in 2003.

Furthermore he is then notified by the mission director that the Govt has approved new flights and he will be on the next shuttle flight, whereas there were 15 flights after the crash before he flew in 28 August 2009.

A massive ad lib by the script writers for dramatic effect.

Citations
Kalpana Chawla: Everything looks so pretty from up there. It's as though the whole place is sacred. The atmosphere looks like ribbons of different colors hugging the Earth. And it looks so fragile. Such a small planet with so much going on. We think we control everything. Our lives, our dreams. We get exhausted. We make sacrifices. We think it's about wanting it hard enough. But life is mysterious, you know? Here's the thing, though. Once that ignition sequence starts, we only have each other. That matters. What you learned today matters.

Reading some of these low reviews...

I understand that sometimes entertainment is subjective. But I have to laugh after reading through the negative reviews (which are of the minority opinion for a reason).

One review said we don't get to know the main character, his struggles, or his culture (clearly that person wasn't paying attention). Another said there is too much focus on the emotions (I guess they saw a different movie than that other guy). Several implied that the story was either boring, played out, or unrealistic. Ridiculous.

Those reviewers either A) didn't watch the movie, B) didn't understand that is based on ACTUAL PEOPLE AND EVENTS, or C) possibly are just 12 years old snots (actually or intellectually) and/or trolls.

It's an excellent movie. The acting, direction, storyline, character development, message, and feel-good moments are all on point. I LOVED it, and I think anyone with even the slightest interest in the subject matter will, too.
