Mistake Factual error: Why is it that the astronauts on Mars and the crew on Earth have conversations as they where on the phone? A message sent from Earth would take about 20 minutes to arrive at Mars and vice-versa.

Mistake Continuity: When Fred Randall keeps expelling gas, the glass on his helment keeps reappearing and disappearing.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": The shuttle in this movie is named "Aries". When it lifts off you can see "Endeavour" on the nose.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": At the end of the movie Rocketman shows his lady friend a space blanket, out of which he states he made something: ballroom dancing outfits. The difference in the material is just too obvious for this not to be a deliberate mistake. The outfits aren't the slightest related to the foil they were supposed to made of.

Mistake Continuity: When Randall is in the chair going 7 g's, he flies off into the wall. He then hits the guy in the wheelchair, making him flip a couple of times. When the guy hits the wall, look at his position, it looks as if he would land headfirst, but in the next shot he lands right side up.

Mistake Factual error: In the last scene when Fred Randall dances with his love interest, how come her gown still looks stiff at zero gravity?

Mistake Continuity: In the press conference scene, before they announce the new astronaut, there are a couple of shots of Fred and Gordo sitting next to each other. In those shots they each have a microphone right in front of them. However, just as they are about to make the announcement, Gordo's microphone has moved, and he has to slide it over to be in front of him.

Mistake Revealing: When Fred Randall (Harland Williams) is in the motion sickness machine (the one that spins around horizontally), you can see the 3 people in the observation centre above at one point. Look at them closely, because they are fake.
