Interstellar Advanced Screening

• the scientific, mathematics, and humanitarian questions raised by the film

One of the main scientific questions asked by the film was how gravity effects others in a different time, area, and dimension. Another question was how far would you go to save humanity, or would you save humanity or your family?

• what you learned about relativity

I learned that massive objects with gravity can have an effect on space and time. I also learned how gravity is so strong it goes through dimensions.

• the importance of gravity in the movie

Gravity was the main theme of the movie. Gravity went through dimensions, and it was used to send a message through time.

• your thoughts on time travel and wormholes

I think that "time travel" is actually just time moving slower in a specific location. It will never be possible to create a time machine unless we slow down time enough that we can go BACK in time. I doubt we will ever be able to go to the future. Wormholes seem like a myth to me, even though they can exist. They are like portals from one area to another which seems very science "fictiony" and entertainment value driven. 

• the possibility of sustaining life on planets other than earth

I believe there is life on other planets than Earth, and that there can be life on other planets. This seems very possible to me because there are billions of galaxies and solar systems, and we cannot be unique. Even if the organisms are uni-cellular and very simple, I believe they are out there somewhere.

• challenges presented in the movie that you can relate to

One challenge that I related to well was the struggle between family and a bigger problem. You have to sacrifice something and you are not going to like it. I also related to the challenge of lying to someone to get a better result. When the professor lied about plan A to save the human race, I felt like that was something that many people have to go through, and it was a tough decision.

• challenges presented in the movie that you cannot relate to

I couldn't relate to the challenge of killing someone to save the human race. Not only was that hypocritical, but Dr. Mann was trusted by so many people. He ended up almost committing homicide to save a race.

• how the movie has changed your understanding of science, space-time, and what's important in our day-to-day lives

The movie gave me a greater understanding of gravity and how gravity effects time through dimensions and space. It was also a dark omen to what could happen to our planet if we are not careful with what we do. We should all make sure to treat the planet the best we can so it survives.

I do not have a picture of me at the museum but I do however have a picture of diet coke.
