October Sky is a 1999 American biographical film directed by Joe Johnston, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Cooper, Chris Owen, and Laura Dern. It is based on the true story of Homer H. Hickam, Jr., a coal miner's son who was inspired by the launch of Sputnik 1 in 1957 to take up rocketry against his father's wishes, and who eventually became a NASA engineer. Most of the film was shot in rural East Tennessee, including Oliver Springs, Harriman and Kingston in Morgan and Roane counties. The movie mostly received a positive critical reception and is still celebrated in the regions of its setting and filming.
October Sky is an anagram of Rocket Boys, the title of the 1998 book upon which the movie is based. It is also used in a period radio broadcast describing Sputnik 1 as it crossed the "October sky". Homer Hickam stated that "Universal Studios marketing people got involved and they just had to change the title because, according to their research, women over thirty would never see a movie titled Rocket Boys" so Universal Pictures changed the title to be more inviting to a wider audience. The book was later re-released with the name in order to capitalize on interest in the movie.

Snow is fallen on October Sky
I wish you could see it 'cause i don't lie
All you can see is the snow
And thats why I chose not to go
I hang my coat up on the rail
I think of you when I tell this tale
We should be together forever
But don't blame it on the weather
You think I'm crazy the sun won't last
But as you say that the clouds go past
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
I feel so cold when it snows
I feel the frostbite on my toes
But I shiver and shake, all night
Waiting for you to hold me tight
I put on the fire, turn up the heat
Then watch the people meet and greet
You think I'm crazy the sun won't last
But as you say that the clouds go past
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
You think I'm crazy the sun won't last
But as you say that the clouds go past
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
Snow is falling on October Sky
