Transcript

00:00 So, what's your big goal, dream?

00:05 I want to be an astronaut.

00:07 Oh my god, you're serious?

00:16 Okay.

00:18 I've wanted this for almost 30 years.

00:22 Mom, why do stars exist?

00:24 Every decision I've made, I've made with the space program in mind.

00:29 Who the hell are you?

00:30 I'm Jose Hernandez, sir. I'm an engineer.

00:32 You're the new guy, right?

00:34 That third floor men's room needs toilet paper.

00:37 Going to space, it's a stupid dream.

00:40 The last 10 candidates were chosen from 12,962 applicants.

00:44 It's never gonna happen.

00:45 Those people who got into the program, what do they have that you don't?

00:52 They have skills that I don't have.

00:58 It's taken them years to get where they are, but there's no guarantee.

01:02 I know this is hard on everybody.

01:10 My body hurts, I can't sleep. I know I can make this work.

01:23 Over the last 10 years, I've applied to the space program 12 times,

01:26 and I've been on the verge of giving up after each and every rejection.

01:29 But you know what, sir? Here I am.

01:30 So you could turn me down again, but rest assured, I'll be standing here again in a year.

01:34 We grew up watching our people make sacrifices.

01:39 It's on us now.

01:40 Tenacity is a superpower.

01:44 This will not be your future. It will always be your past.

01:50 Who better to leave this planet and dive into the unknown than a migrant farm worker?

01:55 You're not crying, are you, pa?

02:07 No, no, no. Some dirt got into my eye.

02:11 Oh, my God.
