Production
Filming started in July 1999 and lasted three months. Scenes were filmed on location at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, and the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Interior shots of the flight simulator, shuttle, and mission control were filmed on sets at Warner Brothers.
Although the "young" portrayals of the characters in the flashback are made by different actors from those of their "older" counterparts, the voices are those of the "older" actors.
