Former Astronauts Pick Top Space Movies as Artemis II Mission Looms Over Moon Return

Former astronauts shared their favorite space movies, some citing classic films like '2001: A Space Odyssey' and 'Apollo 13', while others praised more recent releases such as 'The Martian' and 'Hidden Figures'. The responses were inspired by NASA's upcoming Artemis II mission, which aims to return humans to the moon for the first time in over five decades. This milestone may also motivate filmmakers to create new stories about space exploration. Many of the astronauts' picks reflected their personal experiences and connections to the space program.
