Another Twitter user said, “Have you checked out the epic Korean Netflix sci-fi movie Space Sweepers? It’s about a bunch of misfits who salvage space junk in LEO above a trashed Earth to pay off their debts to a billionaire businessman who’s turned Mars into an all-white colony for the rich, crazy stuff!”
