Will Space Travel Save Us All?

Here's an idea: a PBS show that examines the connections between pop culture, technology, and art.

Will Space Travel Save Us All?

Season 2013 Episode 8 | 4m 24s

Space, also known as The Final Frontier, has been in our collective dreams and fantasies for decades. Who WOULDN'T want to blast into space, experience zero gravity, or walk on the moon?! But with limited funding to NASA, the day that had been promised to us for years, seems no closer now than it did 30 years ago. BUT WAIT! Could private research and funding be the future of galactic exploration?
