The Space Between Us is a 2017 teen romance/science fiction movie starring Asa Butterfield, Britt Robertson, Gary Oldman and Carla Gugino.Sarah Elliot, an astronaut leading a colonization mission on Mars, dies after giving birth to the first human being born on Mars. 16 years later, her son Gardner travels to Earth in hopes of experiencing the planet for the first time, meeting an internet friend Tulsa, and uniting with his long-lost father. Unfortunately, he can only survive on Earth for a limited time due to spending his entire life accustomed to Mars' gravity.Not to be confused for the 1999 film.

No Biochemical Barriers: A notable aversion, since Gardner's intolerance towards Earth gravity due to being born in Mars is a major plot point.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Tulsa might be snarky and hot-tempered at times, but the heart of gold part becomes evident as she starts softening up around Gardner and genuinely wants to help him locate his father.

Cassandra Truth: Tulsa doesn't believe Gardner truthfully saying that he was born on Mars and that his mother was an astronaut, initially contemplating on leaving him behind in the middle of the highway. She finally realizes Gardner was right after he collapses and is hospitalized due to the atmospheric pressure on Earth.

Artistic License – Physics: Gardner and Tulsa enjoy interactive texting... completely ignoring the 4-20 minute speed-of-light comm lag between Earth and Mars. It is implied that the computers in the colony use quantum tunnelling to communicate between Mars and Earth which could bypass the speed-of-light limit.
