Americas future workforce speaks out on the need to continue to invest in the space program.

Throughout recorded history, the power of exploration - of discovering and understanding the unknown – has served to unlock the barriers that inhibit our progress as a species and as a society. For more than fifty years, human space exploration has been directly responsible for advances and breakthroughs in technology development, scientific discovery, economic impact, environmental awareness, communications advances, and global leadership. This first video in the Coalition for Space Exploration micro-cinema campaign is unique and dramatic-- saluting the pride, inspiration, heroism, vision and accomplishments resulting from this magnificent endeavor. The story is told through the eyes and words of real people - not as a documentary narrative. To find out more about the Coalition for Space Exploration visit www.keepamericainspace.com
