From a montage of images and reflections on humanity's dream of spaceflight, Wyn Wachhorst fashions a luminous meditation on the meaning of space exploration. Surveying major figures from Johannes Kepler to Wernher von Braun, he sees in the rise of spaceflight a metaphor of modern history as a recurrent story of transformation and rebirth. He looks at the moon landing as the signature event of our century, and he offers new perspectives on the nature of wonder, suggesting that evolution and exploration are inseparable.
