Need an antidote for chick flicks? Exercise your NetFlix account and get Roving Mars and Deep Water. Both outstanding.
Roving Mars brilliantly demonstrates how complicated concepts often are best explained by skillful animation, e.g., the many booster stages, intricate aiming, and incredible inflatablely cushioned bouncing landing of the Mars rover spacecraft.
Deep Water is a double entendre about a guy faced with a life threatening dilemma in the world's first SOLO around the world sailboat race. Not a happy ending, but some amazing tributes to the dilemmas and heroics of life-changing adventures.
