I believe they're meant to be australopithecines.

The Monolith (with dimensions 1x4x9, the squares of 1, 2, 3) changed them into tool users. Our ancestors weren't doing so well but once we learned tool use we had a huge advantage. Becoming hunters also opened up a protein rich food source (growing brains need lots of protein). And yes, great transition showing that becoming tool users lead directly to space travel.

The Monolith was reacting to sunlight striking its surface for the first time in four million years.

The ship is long due to the need to keep the crew away from the radioactivity of the nuclear engines.

Definitely takes on a horror movie vibe with HAL.

You can stay conscious for 10 or 15 seconds in vacuum before you pass out. Just remember don't try to hold your breath. The air will rush out of your lungs (let it) because if you try to hold your breath your lungs will pop inside your chest.

When it was in theaters people often dropped acid before watching.

They made Dave into one of their kind.

That was a bonding moment between Max and Curnow (the two astronauts that entered Discovery first).

The man on the left side of that Time magazine cover was supposed to be the American President. It was actually science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke, author of the books these movies are based on.

Kelly Parks

Yes, more regular sci-fi.

Great movie, except (to me) the cold war political tropes. That did not age well since the Soviet Union fell just a few years later, ending the cold war in America's favor.

Jupiter is bigger and more massive by far than all the other planets in the solar system put together. It has sometimes been described as a failed star and if it had been twice as big as it is it would have become a star.

Thank you for doing both of these. I really appreciate it.
