Space Brothers

When brothers Mutta and Hibito were kids, they vowed to become astronauts. While Hibito joins NASA, Mutta's path in life leaves him down on his luck.

After passing screening for the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency exam, Mutta debates taking it until he hears words of advice from an old friend.

While Mutta continues on his road into JAXA, the pressure mounts as he faces his most trying test yet: the grueling medical and physical evaluation.

Mutta is subjected to an in-depth final interview and steels himself to face the panel. But despite his resolve, the last question has him reeling.

After touching down in Houston, home to NASA's center for human spaceflight. Mutta is chased down by an excited dog that belongs to a familiar face.

Mutta visits NASA's Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center. While its sheer scale blows him away, it isn't the only thing that exceeds his expectations.

After Mutta's past puts his future at JAXA in jeopardy, he distracts himself with news media. Hibito notices that something is on his brother's mind.

After stopping a robbery at a diner, Mutta is celebrated in both the U.S. and Japan. However, the truth of what actually happened is far less heroic.

As Mutta returns to Japan, he can't get his brother's will off his mind. Later, he meets with his friend Kenji and they discuss their futures.

Despite having reservations at first, Mutta heads to JAXA for his third exam. But, this time, passing will require more than just brains and brawn.
