Project Hail Mary
2026
Science teacher Ryland Grace wakes up on a spaceship light years from home with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. As his memory returns, he begins to uncover his mission: solve the riddle of the mysterious substance causing the sun to die out. He must call on his scientific knowledge and unorthodox ideas to save everything on Earth from extinction… but an unexpected friendship means he may not have to do it alone.

My notes
A nice adaptation of the book. It does really gloss over some things - essentially solving the entire surface level plot of Arrival in about 3 minutes - and naturally truncated some things from the book.
Not a miracle. Not profound. Certainly feels like fiction.
