They're not astronauts they only played them on TV. For four seasons, from 1979 to 1982, the crew of the NSEA Protector donned their uniforms and set out on thrilling and often dangerous missions in space - then their series was canceled.
The Thermians, a race of aliens, have mistaken intercepted television transmissions of the show for "historical documents." Arriving on earth, they whisk "Commander Peter Quincy Taggart" and his crew into space to help them defeat an all-too-real and very deadly adversary. With no script, no director, and no clue about real space travel, the actors have to turn in the performances of their lives to become the heroes the Thermians believe them to be.

pablouk, a movie doesn't have to be filmed in HD, to be crystal clear, and thus being able to be deemed HD. HD just means high definition. A movie doesn't have to be filmed in HD to have that quality. My Star Trek The Motion Picture Collection movies on Bluray
weren't filmed in HD, but in Star Trek: The Motion Picture, which was filmed in 1978, was burned onto the Bluray discs from the original master, is still so crystal clear, that you can see William Shatner's sweat glisten on his make-up-less forehead, and just about see every strand of Leonard Nimoys Beatles-like hair cut.
So, in a word, it is high definition, because the high just means the high amount of information that's on the disc (which is possible, due to the finer blue laser) that creates the crystal clear picture.
Yes, things that are filmed in HD are TRUE HD movies, granted. But
when VHS was still around and there was no Bluray yet, DVD was considered the medium of High Definition.
It's all relative. One day there wil be some other medium being called HD instead of Bluray.

If it wasn't filmed in HD it can not be HD, this is just an upgrade to the original print.
Plus the ability to charge twice the normal DVD price.
