Homer Hickam has an absolutely amazing life ... the movie about his life is awe inspiring ... but the three autobiographical books he wrote are truly remarkable and I highly recommend them to anyone who likes to read (be sure to read then in order) ... Homer CLEARLY had multiple instances of divine intervention in his life
The movie October Sky was partially responsible for inspiring my son’s fascination with space and engineer seeing when he was young. That and Buzz Lightyear. He now works at NASA as a systems engineer and fly’s satellites.
October Skies was a great movie.
