![]() After recovering Ryan, he transmitted his radio message to Houston, but received no response. He blasted forward, colliding with her and tethering her to him so he could tow her back to the shuttle. Matt, using his propulsion pack found her. After a few tense moments of Stone desperately trying to signal with her light, her radio crackled to life. Ryan panicked, breathing heavily and calling out despite not receiving a transmission. As she started to slow down, Matt’s voice cut out and she was left floating forward, although she managed to see the International Space Station in the distance. ![]() Matt continued to radio instructions while she begged for assistance ordering her to give him any information that she could that could help him locate her position, but she was spinning too fast to observe her environment. Ryan quickly tumbled away through the vast expanse of space with no control over her movements which was the slightest one with the potential to leave her spinning out in space forever. Stone complied and released the strap only to be flung even further out into space. Matt, shielded by a large chunk of the structure continued issuing commands to Ryan insisting that she should detach herself from the structure or else be carried too far from the shuttle. The storm of the debris ripped through the shuttle and destroyed the structure, sending Ryan off into the void. Just as he reached her, the first bits of the debris began to pepper the Explorer striking Shariff and sending him off into space and the only thing catching him was the tether. The debris hurled forward through space toward the shuttle as Matt turned around to recover Ryan. Matt fired his way back toward Shariff and the Explorer while Houston explained: A Russian satellite self-destructed and the resulting cloud of debris was hurling toward the shuttle which lied directly in it’s orbit. Before Matt could complete his story, Houston sent an urgent message: The astronauts need to return to the shuttle immediately because a cloud of satellite debris was hurling right for them at over 50,000 miles per hour. Ryan apologized, claiming that she was used to a basement lab where things fell to the floor. A bolt floated away from the structure and Matt hopped out after it with a safety tether catching him as the line went taut closing his hand around the floating bolt. Houston confirmed that Matt would fall shy of the current record, but Matt decided to take his mind off it by telling a story about his time in New Orleans while he assisted Ryan with unscrewing the panel. Kowalski lamented that he would not be breaking the record for the longest spacewalk before he retired which was a personal career ambition. Stone laughed and claimed that her eyes are brown. He playfully flirted with her, asking about her training and complimenting her blue eyes. Matt zipped over to Ryan and asked her if he could be of some assistance. Houston informed her that they are not receiving a signal before asking her to provide a new estimate on how long that the repairs should take: She needed sixty more minutes. Ryan Stone diligently worked on repairing a faulty transmission card. Nearby, on the docked Hubble Space Telescope, medical engineer Dr. Shariff Dasari, a flight engineer, gleefully jumped around on his tether – thoroughly enjoying the weightlessness. As he zipped around in the propulsion pack, Matt took it all in.īelow him, two other astronauts worked on the shuttle. Houston reminded him that most of the workers down on Earth heard about the story before congratulating Matt on his upcoming retirement: This would be his last spacewalk. He radioed his compliments down to Houston before regaling the control room with the story of his trip to Tijuana from when his wife left him while he was on his first spacewalk. Veteran astronaut Matt Kowalski propelled above it, strapped into an experimental propulsion pack. The Explorer Space Shuttle floated lazily 370 miles above the Earth’s surface. The silence built to loud noise and the title was displayed before sudden silence and a shot of Earth from space. Plot Summary Īt 600 km above planet Earth, the temperature fluctuated between +258 and -148 degrees Fahrenheit. ![]() This article is a highly detailed plot summary of Gravity.
