Five science fiction movies that get the science right
I’m pleased to see 2001: A Space Odyssey making the top of the list here (though I don’t think there was any particular order)…
Despite being made before the first moon landing, Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C Clarke’s masterpiece is a strikingly realistic depiction of space travel. It envisions interplanetary spaceships that use a variety of techniques to allow people to exist in zero gravity – some sections rotate to generate artificial gravity, others have walls covered in Velcro (or something similar) so that crew members wearing suitable shoes can walk across them.
