Three marooned astronauts. Only 55 minutes left to rescue them. While the whole world watches and waits...

AdventureDramaScience Fiction

After spending several months in an orbiting lab, three astronauts prepare to return to Earth only to find their de-orbit thrusters won't activate. After initially thinking they might have to abandon them in orbit, NASA decides to launch a daring rescue. Their plans are complicated by a Hurricane headed towards the launch site—and a shrinking air supply in the astronauts' capsule.

A nail-biting race against time as dwindling oxygen and a looming hurricane threaten a stranded crew. This feels like a tense, grounded thriller where human ingenuity is pushed to its absolute limit against the unforgiving void.
