The premise of this movie list is to rank space movies from the least to the most scientifically accurate. By "space movies," they mean movies about astronauts traveling from earth in the current timeline or the not-too-distant future, so there are no Star Trek or Star Wars films, or anything that could be classified as space fantasy. What surprised me is that, while it starts with a movie that has a ridiculous and implausible plot, it quickly shifts into the "more accurate than you'd think" movies. The last twenty years or so have given us a bunch of space films with advanced special effects, so there's no reason to talk about "artificial gravity." And they have real scientists as consultants, which tells us that accuracy is important to the producers.
That said, I immediately (and correctly) guessed what movie would be number one. You probably can, too. Read about 12 space films and how accurate they are at Cracked.
