Space worker: NASA after Challenger and Columbia

NASA was in a precarious situation after the Challenger disaster. NASA employees were devastated and the country was wary of future space travel. The situation today after the loss of the Columbia is remarkably similar. Space Worker, originally produced for PBS, goes behind the scenes at NASA to look at and talk with management and others about the future of our space program, as they saw it at that time. Space visionaries share their views on why it’s crucial that we continue in space, how we’ll get there, and what we could find. Reviews: “Space Worker is an intriguing behind-the-scenes look at the men and women who still hold onto the dream. Recently uncovered archival footage help weave a spellbinding and credible story. Highly recommended.” Video Librarian Awards: Houston International Film & Video Festival, Silver Award National Educational Film & Video Festival, Bronze Apple
