2010: THE YEAR WE MADE CONTACT



An amazing film again relating to space. It was filmed in 1984 and is about a crew of astronauts and scientists going on a mission to find out what happened to the old 'Discovery' spacecraft. Turns out all the 'Discovery' crew members had died but do discover and investigate the Monoliths (fictional advanced machines built by an unseen extraterrestrial species). Eventually the Monoliths engulf jupiter and turn it into a sun, thus giving the Earth two suns.

This film is another good example of Retro-Futurism, looking into the year 2010 from the year 1984.
