Great film, Bad Science

Rating: 9/10 (30 November 2014)

I saw this film in an IMAX theater. I was also the only one laugh my butt off. The basic premise of the film is highly ludicrous, it really shows that film-makers today are clueless idiots when it comes to science. Lets start off with the Main Character.
Why would a MEDICAL DOCTOR be fixing the Hubble? I mean she's not even an ophthalmologist! The repair of the Hubble was undertaken by people with engineering degrees not medical arts degrees.
Kessler Syndrome. A highly unlikely scenario of satellite collisions and domino theory, taken to the extreme limits of statistical probabilities. The amount of debris shown would not be generated by even 500 satellites. Again idiot film-makers not asking or ignoring real world physics.
Clooney's character is a lieutenant. Clooney is WAY to old to be playing a character with that rank. That is akin to Tom Cruse playing Maverick in the next Top Gun and only being a Lt. Commander!
Hubble, ISS, and Tiangong all within sight lines of each other. This is about as moronic as the "Eject the core" crap from the first JJ Trek film where 9 THINGS fly out of the dorsal part of the secondary hull of the Enterprise. CORE = SINGULAR!!! Where as here this guy wants you to believe that a MMU can go from Hubble to the ISS.
Geeky Physics and Orbital Mechanics warning.
Hubble 28Deg/570km ISS 51Deg/425km TG 43Deg/397km
Not even the Space Shuttle has the fuel to change orbits that far. It not a question of the altitude, but the orbit inclination. The equator would be a 0 inclination orbit. No the science is horrendous in this film, not to mention the physics, however it is very entertaining.
