ADFAS Brisbane: Evening - The Space Shuttle

The Space Shuttle: a butterfly on a rocket
This presentation traces NASA’s Space Shuttle program from its ambitious start to its final missions. Through my 12-week film shoot at Cape Canaveral and Mission Control in Houston, this documentary offers exclusive footage from unprecedented access to the Space Shuttle, Endeavour—a privilege never before granted. I’ll share behind-the-scenes stories and delve into the missions and the individuals who made the Space Shuttle program a defining chapter in space exploration.
You can listen to a one hour interview on ABC radio’s “Conversations” via this link.
