First Man

[physicskid he/him]

Just saw First Man and while I am definitely biased (major space history nerd) I think its the best movie I've seen in years. The visuals are astounding and the technical aspects are generally portrayed accurately. I particularly love the attention to Armstrong's performance during Gemini 8 as it was a critical factor in his selection as commander of apollo 11 but very few people are aware of it. 

If you have any interest in space exploration you should definitely see this. I have always found that no matter how astounding our fiction it is difficult to compete with the true stories of the space program for legendary achievement.

 

edit; just realized I should have put this in entertainment discussion
