Abstract:
This talk will tell the story of a journey from earth to the moon, from fantasy to reality. The story of three young engineers who chose to challenge the exclusive club of superpowers in deep space travel, and found a whole nation joining them along the way. It’s a story of hope and heartbreak, of incredible accomplishments beside (nearly) impossible difficulties. It’s the story of children that fueled a spaceship with their hopes and dreams and sent a clear message: “Shoot for the moon and follow your dreams!”
Event Organizer: Dr. Michael Geller
