Project Hail Mary plot: Schoolteacher turns unlikely astronaut
Ryland Grace is not a trained astronaut. He’s actually a middle school science teacher. But when he wakes up alone on a spacecraft, it’s clear something big is going on. Slowly, he finds out he is part of a last-ditch mission, Project Hail Mary, to save Earth from a dying sun.
The mission? Travel 11.9 light years away to a star that seems immune to the strange issue affecting the rest. Earth hopes this star holds the answer. The only problem? Grace did not exactly volunteer for this trip. As he says in the trailer, “I put the not in astronaut.”
