        @neiltyson Yiou missed the point. It isn't a "science film". It isn't a documentary. It is entertainment. Relax and watch a movie, Neil.

        @neiltyson the tears were the 1 thing that DID bug me-I'd just seen @Cmdr_Hadfield's vid on wet-cloth. Would tears form a watersheath too?

        @neiltyson Having seen GRAVITY twice & had similar thoughts about things they got wrong, I agree they got lots right. Movie's worth seeing.
