Theme: NASA and the Space Mission

This theme refers to films that take place in and around the Space Race, the Space Mission or concern themselves with realistically grounded attempts to explore the Solar System. These are stories in which we see:-

– the prediction of the Moon Landing and Space Race

– the employment of NASA or the cosmonaut space program, the space shuttle and International Space Station as fictional devices

– where the space program is extrapolated onwards to depict credible attempts to explore the Solar System based on known or probable advances in science and technology.
