this cheesy acting melodramatic blockbuster shitfest is only good is you're a 90s normie or a nostalgiafag. it's so goddamn bad.

Because their mission was to drill oil on an asteroid

Deep impact

You are not an astronaut. You are a pilot/engineer/scientist with astronaut training. Their job was to sit in the shuttle, keep their mouths shut and dig on the asteroid.

they did have astronauts on the trip to do all the astronaut things you faggots

besides very mechanical shit like that requires years of experience working on the job. who would you rather fix your car, a brain surgeon or the high school dropout mechanic down the street?
