Again, another Hollywood offering that had its scientific balls to the walls failed to impress Tyson who, again, took to Twitter to flag up a couple of issues.

To be fair, astronauts come from a variety of science backgrounds and those actually living in space, aboard the ISS, for example, need to know how to maintain equipment. To be even more fair, it still doesn't make sense that they would send a biological engineer up on a mission to fix a telescope.

There were a few more glaring issues in there that seemed to irritate the astrophysicist.

Despite all of this, it seems that our Neil did actually allow himself to enjoy it.

There we go, he's not that bad after all.
