Hubble's coming to a cinema near you
A new 3-D movie promises to give you an amazing insight into the Space Shuttle's mission to repair the Hubble Space Telescope.
Moviegoers will have the chance of accompanying astronauts during almost every step of the way, including a thunderous shuttle launch sequence.
For most of us who may never get the chance to hop aboard a private spacecraft for a seemingly weightless thrill-ride, the film Hubble may represent the best opportunity to experience what astronauts have long struggled to describe.

Daniel Smith - a long time ago, in a galaxy far away just north of Watford, Daniel fancied himself as a scientist but turned out to be the worst scientist since that bloke who mapped out all those canals on Mars that turned out to be scratches on his telescope's lens. Luckily, he is now not working on the Large Hadron Collider inadvertently creating a black hole that would swallow the world but is safely behind a desk writing this blog, bringing you the fantastical underbelly of nature... weird science.
