A lot of physics knowledge and terms: such as gravity, wormholes, black holes, solar system, Milky Way , high-dimensional space , space-time bending effect, cooperate with universe to explore the phantom scene of , which makes people addicted in minutes in outer space. Even physics scumbags can be quite fascinating to watch.
"Interstellar" is also a doomsday-themed blockbuster, and the humanistic spirit of survival and salvation runs through the whole film.
It is about a space exploration program led by NASA scientists to help humans find more habitable planets in outer space.
The collision of human nature supports the icy predicament of human beings. The
film can be sorted out from four perspectives, namely: human survival, astronaut survival, exploration and rescue, and the transmission of love.
01
Earth Crisis
The film envisages the apocalyptic background of the earth: there is a blight on the earth, which seriously affects the growth of food. Wheat and okra have disappeared, and only maize is barely surviving on the brink of extinction. The cornfields that appear in the
film are real cornfields that the production team deliberately planted on more than 30,000 acres of land. To be able to achieve such a realistic effect in this detail, it is no wonder that the shooting quality of this film is so strong.
Lack of food is one of the survival problems facing the world.
The world needs a large number of farmers to grow food, and engineers and astronauts, which used to be popular occupations, have become worthless. Farmers who can grow crops are in desperate need.
Fusarium wilt is caused by relying on nitrogen , which leads to a decrease in the oxygen content in the air and a serious decline in air quality, which in turn spawns the frequent occurrence of dust storms .
People also need to beware of sandstorms in their lives.
The frequent occurrence of cough and lung disease puts humans at risk of breathing suffocation.
Cooper, a middle-aged man living in a cornfield, turned out to be a astronaut and engineer, and once worked for NASA. He is now a farmer who can only farm and repair farm machinery. He lives with his daughter Murphy, son Tom, and father-in-law Donald on this scary and disturbing planet.
The atmosphere of the apocalypse is always on people's minds, and people have nowhere to escape on earth.
Scientists predict that the 10-year-old Murphy generation may well be the last generation to live on Earth.
The challenge of human existence on earth is so severe.
Earth is considered by scientists to be no longer suitable for human existence. Therefore, scientists urgently need to find habitable planets suitable for human continuation in outer space.
02
Exploration and Rescue
NASA, headed by Professor Brand, is trying its best to explore ways to explore outer space and leave the earth.
That's why the 12 Pioneer Explorer astronauts "Operation Lazarus" ten years ago, and the second astronaut ten years later, stepped into outer space for exploration.
However, there is no planet suitable for human existence in the solar system. The goal of both groups of explorer astronauts is to leave the solar system to reach the Milky Way, to find a planet and make it a new home for those who are now on Earth.
Ten years ago, the twelve rover spaceships led by Dr. Mann were pioneers. They were exploring twelve possible worlds in the unknown starry sky, but they only had two years of supplies.
Ten years later, due to the persistent abnormal phenomenon of gravity, Cooper and his daughter Murphy accidentally found Cooper, who was in the secret base of NASA. astronaut. Cooper chose to join in order to save his own children.
Professor Brand said to Cooper: "Go to space and save them." (referring to humans, also referring to Dr. Mann's team) Search for a new habitable place in space, build the space station , and save the human beings on earth. (It's a lie)
Because of the lack of data due to the equations that Professor Brand had previously solved due to the existence of black holes, it was impossible to send all human beings out of the earth. But don't let the astronauts and others know that the plan is a failure.
Plan B: Super population bomb plan, hatch 5000 fertilized eggs on the ship and establish a colony. Humans left on Earth will fend for themselves.
Obviously, PlanB is too heartless for the humans still on earth. (But it's Professor Brand's real plan)
So, the space program of Cooper and his astronauts is still Plan A, but they don't know that they can never return to Earth.
Robots Tass, Case, Dr. Emilia Brand, Doyle, Romilly, Cooper, participated in the space exploration of Eternal, flight plan is: 8 months to Mars , Fourteen months to Saturn .
Prof. Brand's daughter Dr. Brand said: "Humanity will be in exile, desperate to find a place to live. That is our mission." explorers and explorers, but their strength is only enough to save the three of Mann's team. The
poem that they repeatedly mentioned in outer space is the source of the faith and strength that Professor Brand brings to them.
This is a poem written by British poet Dylan Thomas " Don't go gentle into that good night ":
Don't go meekly into that long night, the day is coming to an end, and your old age should still burn and roar/
z454 zz9怒斥那光明渐逝……/
智者深知，人之将死，黑暗自有其时/
因为他们所言，未曾裂天如电/
不要温顺地走入那长夜/
怒斥吧，怒斥That light fades away... /

The existential crisis of the astronaut
The astronaut who drives the spacecraft into space needs to be strong enough to face the unknown situation. Because their life and death are forever unknown.
They have to deal with the difficulties of insufficient fuel, insufficient supplies, and one sip of oxygen will cause one sip of oxygen to be lost.
also has to face the challenges of wormholes, black holes, time changes, and the extreme loneliness of being unaccompanied.
From outer space, Earth is a lonely planet.
But in fact, explorers are also loners.
As early as ten years ago, Dr. Mann had led eleven other people off Earth on the loneliest journey in human history.
They're surviving and exploring, it's such a hard thing.
being able to return to Earth, live with their families, or do their part to help humans find a habitable planet is a huge motivation for them to support their own exploration.
The three target planets that the Eternal spacecraft will go to are: Lola Miller's planet (the initiator of the biology project), Wolf Edmonds' planet (particle physicist), Dr. Mann ( scientists, explorers) planet.
Miller's planet is located near the black hole, and the time here is relative: 1 hour is equivalent to 7 years on Earth.
But when they reach the first Miller's planet first, they find that Miller may have been knocked over by a giant wave and lost his life a few minutes ago, and Doyle, who was traveling with him, was also swept away by the giant wave.
When they arrived at the second Dr. Mann's planet, they learned that Mann had set up fake data on the spacecraft, and Romilly died when the spacecraft exploded in the process of verifying the data, verifying what he said before: we In space, death is instantaneous.
After capturing the Eternal spaceship, Dr. Mann forcibly opened the gas hatch and died when the spaceship exploded.
Dr. Mann is a villain in the film. He has very complex human emotions:
He wants to complete the task to help mankind, but he is also subjected to the great test of desperate loneliness and self-survival. He sent the wrong data signal in the hope that humans would come to rescue him. He seized the Eternal spaceship in the hope of driving a new spaceship to continue to help mankind find a habitable planet.
Obviously, the planet he signaled before was not a real habitable place. And returning to Earth is even more impossible.
Dr. Mann is torn between two extremes in his personal survival and his adventure for all mankind.
may be exactly what he said: it's impossible to fully empathize with this if it didn't happen to others.
The astronauts traveling this time are only Cooper and Brand, and they are going to the third planet: Brand's lover, the planet where Edmonds landed.

The Power of Love
When they drove the Eternal to the planets of Miller and Dr. Mann, they found that neither planet was suitable for human habitation, according to the data provided by the first astronauts. Miller and Dr. Mann both lost their lives, as did Doyle and Romilly who were traveling with them.
After experiencing all kinds of perils in space, Cooper was ejected from the spaceship alone and accidentally entered five-dimensional space . Only Brand was left to go to Edmonds' planet.
In five-dimensional space, Cooper can see the timeline of the three-dimensional space of Earth, and everything that happened in the past can be seen in the physical timeline.
He used Morse code and gravity to transcend time and space, exchange data with the earth, and transmit the information of the new space to the earth, in order to save the human beings left on the earth who were abandoned, waiting to suffocate and starve to death.
Cooper uses Morse code to transmit data to Murphy's watch, which is an important turning line for Cooper and his daughter Murphy to resolve the entanglement in the film.
has grown into Cooper's age as Murphy, and is also involved in NASA's space program. She found the answer from the information transmitted by her father Cooper's watch, and thus successfully established the Cooper space station orbiting Saturn, saving the human beings in the world.
Just met again when Murphy was old and dying.
The place where father and daughter meet is not Earth, but a space station.
Cooper didn't return to Earth as originally intended, but he helped Murphy and all of humanity with his love.
This is a process of cosmic exploration and a process of passing on love.
Love is the language that crosses all barriers.
like in the videoAs multiple lines mention:
"Love isn't something we invented, it's always been and is powerful."
"Love is the only thing we can perceive that transcends the dimensions of space and time."
Also said: " wants people to work together to continue the human race, not to save themselves or their children. Human evolution has not yet surpassed that simple obstacle, we can care deeply and selflessly about ourselves But for those who don’t know, we give very little.”
Cooper, a father of two children and a cosmic explorer, has a deeper understanding of the transmission of love:
“When you become a parent, Your number one priority: make your kids feel safe. So you can't tell a ten-year-old that the end of the world is coming."
"There will come a time when it's not you and me, but human beings, one that has evolved beyond The civilization that knows four-dimensional space."
made love a force that travels through time and space, and Cooper did it.
