Fight For Space

Streaming video - 2016

In 1962, spurred by the Cold War, President John F. Kennedy famously made the bold proclamation that NASA would send astronauts to the moon by the end of the decade. The Space Race inspired a generation to pursue careers in science and technology, but as the balance of world power shifted, interest in space exploration declined. FIGHT FOR SPACE serves as an urgent call to re-awaken our sense of wonder and discovery and features commentary by Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson. Official Selection at **DOC NYC**. *"...Equally electrifying and agonizing...reminds us the realization of Kennedy’s plans for early space travel is now a distant memory..." - Tom Keogh, **The Seattle Times***
