This brings a tear to my eye:
"Forty-two radio telescope dishes near Mount Shasta will again start listening for sounds of intelligent life in the universe this fall after donors -- including actress Jodie Foster -- came up with more than $200,000 ..."
When the real-world actress saves a radio telescope, it makes the movie that much more real and meaningful.

I also liked this quote:
"There is something very quintessentially American about it," Shostak added. "There's something in our culture about being willing to try long-shot but high-stakes experiments in the name of exploration."
