Project Hail Mary is more than a survival story. It is about what happens inside a person’s heart. Ryland Grace struggles with regret, anger, and feeling misunderstood. The real question is not about science. It is whether he will let the Lord and life change him for the better. While watching, I kept noticing his last name: Grace. That seems […]
