Please help me find this movie...?
Sci-fi movie I saw when i was younger. I remember bits and pieces -
It seemed like there were two stories - the first was a mission into space to trigger a massive solar flare early so that it would miss the earth. there was a woman clone on the ship who at one point, is rendered unconscious by a genetically programmed trigger. She eventually steals the craft with the explosives and flies it into the sun to save the captain.
On earth, very post apocalyptic. The son (of the captain of the space mission I believe) is hunted by a corporation. He fleas and runs in with a guy and at one point they get an automated supply train to stop by standing on the tracks. Oh, and the kid knows latin.
Thanks!

Solar Crisis (1990)
Plot
A huge solar flare is predicted to fry the Earth. Astronauts must go to the Sun to drop a talking bomb (Freddy) at the right time so the flare will point somewhere else. Giant IXL Corp CEO Teague thinks the flare won't happen and wants the mission to fail so he can buy the planet cheaply while the scare lasts. Employee Haas prepares a surprise for the astronauts. While daddy Steve Kelso commands the space ship where temperatures rise, granddaddy Admiral Skeet Kelso is searching the desert for grandson Mike who's gone AWOL to say goodbye to his dad but who inadvertently crossed the path of the guys from IXL after meeting desert-dweller Travis.
