You might like to check out the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which used aerobraking to enter Mars orbit.

the book is surreal , when discovery is hit by radiation and destroyed the ghost of hal and bowman whatch it fall to pieces, trippy.

During their space walk in the film when they get to Io to board discovery they're only allowed to stay outside for 15 minutes because of the radiation. They do make some mention of it.

I like the special effects!! A lot more realistic than the ones used in StarWars for example!! And there is no sound in space, only when the ship hits the atmosphere!!

Dr. Floyd wasn't the only English speaker in the crew. His two fellow American crew members were Dr. Chandra (played by Bob Balaban)and Dr. Walter Curnow (played by John Lithgow). Granted, those two are still in hibernation at this point in the movie, but the public announcements may have been in English for that reason. Also, this a Hollywood movie we're talking about.... ;). Have you seen the whole movie ever?
