After nine years, a NASA communications expert reconnects with the astronaut she believed to be dead and helps rescue him from space.

When a abstruse astronaut is diagnosed with brain damage from a leaking thruster, his spaceship is catapulted in to the cosmos where he discovers his fuel will run out in 100 hours, now he must circum navigate fate and return home.

There is no real challenge for a commnications specialist to reconnect with a astronaut.Perhaps if he had a noticable and genuine weakness we might be drawn to the protagonist and the rescue from space is just to plain plain......Is this a classic.anyway.I think you could make it a lot cooler and maybe create something original instead of reviewing predictable movie....conepts, stakes, time restrictions, weaknesses, and originality.Just a thought and a bit of a insight.......Night.....Alex P Smith

It might be more fun if instead of focussing on rescuing him, start with his return to Earth. You could cut nine years down to a few months (which would still raise interest/questions), have him return in human form but harbouring an Alien force and then have him set about killing everyone until stopped. I've given no thought here as to the 'why'...still not overly original but you could create a kick ass bad guy
