"Movie poster for \"Galaxy Quest\" featuring the three main characters striking heroic poses in front of a starry space background. A spaceship zooms past behind them, and the movie title appears in bold metallic letters in the middle of the poster."

Galaxy Quest (1999)

“Never give up. Never surrender.”

Especially when your cancelled sci-fi show inspires real aliens to recruit you for an interstellar rescue mission! Galaxy Quest is a love letter to nerds, fandoms, and fake science — proving that sometimes, the power of pretend can save the galaxy.

This movie is rated PG.

Museum Movie Night — a night of movies, music, and mind-blowing fun. Before the show, enjoy live tunes, hands-on science activities, and tasty food and drinks. After the credits roll, stick around for a science chat with an expert and movie trivia, all hosted by A/V Geeks!
