Ryland is a man on a spaceship drifting through the lonely expanse with no memory of how he got there.<\/p>\n
His crewmates are dead. He\u2019s too far from Earth to call for help. And beyond the window, nothing looks familiar. That view \u2013 thousands of stars suspended within a swirl of color \u2013 resembles something pulled from the pages of a college textbook.<\/p>\n
Ryland has just awakened from a lengthy, years-long induced coma \u2013 and he is, to put it mildly, in a disoriented panic.<\/p>\n
So Ryland does what any man in his situation might do. First, he shaves his long, unkempt beard. Then he searches the ship for clues about his mission. Along the way, he finds small moments of relief \u2013 sampling the ship\u2019s food and stepping into a 360-degree Earth simulator, where he can wander simulated beaches, forests, and mountain trails.<\/p>\n
Eventually, the fog in his brain begins to lift, and he starts to remember why he was sent.<\/p>\n
Earth\u2019s sun \u2013 and others across the galaxy \u2013 are slowly dying, drained by a mysterious black organism known as Astrophage, which feeds on a sun\u2019s energy and multiplies at an alarming rate. Eventually, it kills every star it encounters.<\/p>\n
Yet one nearby star \u2013 Tau Ceti \u2013 remains unaffected, and astronomers can\u2019t explain why.<\/p>\n
Ryland\u2019s mission is simple: travel to Tau Ceti, uncover why it\u2019s surviving the Astrophage threat, and transmit that discovery back to Earth aboard a probe.<\/p>\n
The future of the planet depends on him.<\/p>\n
Will Ryland find the answer in time?<\/p>\n
It\u2019s all part of the new movie Project Hail Mary<\/em> (PG-13), which stars Ryan Gosling in the lead role and is based on a novel of the same name.<\/p>\n Here are four reasons families probably will love it:<\/p>\n Photo Credit: \u00a9MGM<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ryland is a man on a spaceship drifting through the lonely expanse with no memory of how he got there.
