Movie

A few days ago we watched the movie October Sky which is about a boy who launches rockets. This movie relates to rockets in science because in science they launch rockets to the moon and to launch satellites also they use rockets to take data from space and other planets. Also the movie talked about the rocket Sputnik which was the first artificial satellite to orbit the Earth, which was made by the U.S.S.R. which was a world power in the Cold War who launched the first space headed rockets in the world. The movie also talks about a type of math called calculus. Which they used to prove that their rocket did not start the fire that burned a forest to the ground by using a special formula. This also talks about character traits because they cooperate to find the rocket and to make the rocket fuel non-bubble filled. It also tells about self control because the guys don't scream or fight when the rocket burns the forest they give up than try to prove it wrong. They also respect the mining industry and the main persons dad and don't make fun of it or vandalise the place because they get yelled at.
