The US in Space: Tensions and Paradoxes 

Many people assume that it was inevitable  for the US to undertake a massive space program, including a moon landing. Yet a closer look at the details of America’s  missions in space reveals a more complex story in which space technology has embodied tensions and paradoxes in American culture. Only by looking at the space program in connection with its political and social contexts can we understand the decisions made in the past and the choices that America and its leaders will face in the future. 

It will be led by Bernie. Webinar is 7-8:30pm April 12. Registration is free.
