Just saw the movie "Gravity" aside from a few gaffs (ISS & Hubble on same orbit),and few others, a fun movie for space junkies. Saw the 3D, IMAX version. Excellent scenery, I was waiting for SO-50 to float by. 73 Bob W7LRD
Agree Bob, the debris scene is well taken and can imagine the damage it can cause. I was hoping during the movie the astronauts would try Amateur Radio to contact ground when all comm's with Houston fail. 73 Nitin [VU3TYG]

Gravity is a very entertaining film. I found some of the scenarios portrayed laughable yet creative. It is amazing that during the entire 90 minute film only two actors are utilized, one being only for the first 1/3 of the movie.
The debris scene is very scary when you think of all the global impact such a real event would cause.
