Here we have a biographical film about one of the major NASA members. It is honestly one of the best "follow your dreams" movies I have seen, because [spoilers]. It is also a tragic tale in some sense, and invokes the idea of legacy through the progress of things like the space program.

I will write more later. I will also add that my local area provided some of the Science fair stuff and stunt doubles for the movie. One reason my mom can't watch it - one of the stunt doubles (her student) died in a car accident afterwards.
