Above and Beyond: NASA's Journey To Tomorrow

As NASA celebrates its 60th anniversary, Discovery Network shines a spotlight on the historic institution taking us to the moon, to the surface of Mars, to the outer edge of our solar system and beyond. Directed, produced, and narrated by Academy Award®- nominated and Emmy®-winning Rory Kennedy, Above and Beyond: Nasa's Journey To Tomorrow, examines the extraordinary ways NASA has changed not only our vision of the universe, but also our planet, and ourselves. But more than a moving portrait of NASA’s many accomplishments in space, the film also sheds light on the agency’s lesser-known area of focus - the vital role NASA has played in measuring the health of our home planet. However far NASA may travel, its gaze has always returned to Earth - monitoring our seas and skies, our ice and sands - in an ongoing struggle to meet today’s great challenge - protecting our planet (Sarasota Film Festival)
