Mission to Mars Movie Wiki

The crew of the Mars II recovery craft includes Commander Woody Blake (Tim Robbins), Co-Commander Jim McConnell (Gary Sinise), and mission specialists Terri Fisher (Connie Nielsen) and Phil Ohlmyer (Jerry O'Connell). They are sent to investigate the tragedy and rescue Luke. As the ship is prepared to enter Mars orbit, a swarm of meteors collides with the ship, breaching the hull. The crew works quickly to repair the damage, but the external fuel tanks are forgotten, causing a large leakage and later, explosion. They quickly put on pressure suits and maneuver their way to the R.E.M.O. module orbiting the planet. Woody concludes that the only hope of a successful rendezvous with the R.E.M.O. is for him to launch himself directly at it using the remainder of his jet pack fuel, carrying a tether cord from the others. He successfully attaches the cord to the R.E.M.O., but is unable to properly land on it, floating helplessly away toward the planet. Terri begins a rescue bid to bring Woody back, but knowing Terri would run out of positioning fuel in trying to reach him and would die doing so, Woody removes his helmet and dies to save Terri.
