55 years ago today in 1968, "2001: A Space Odyssey" premiered at the Uptown Theater in Washington, DC. Directed by Stanley Kubrick, it was based on a short story by Arthur C. Clarke (pictured here in May 1968). More on the lasting legacy of the film: https://airandspace.si.edu/stories/editorial/2001-celebrates-50-years

And so while 2001 is famous for its enigmatic space baby, Kubrick was obsessed with getting the technical details of spaceflight right, at least as those details were then understood. Stewardesses combat weightlessness with Velcro socks, space stations generate gravity with centrifugal force, and astronauts communicate with tablet computers and videophones. 2001 understands that space travel can be stately and majestic to viewers and yet, to its participants, it has an element of workaday mundanity. Meticulous attention is paid to the practical technology of an imagined future. It may not be accurate, but it’s credible.
