This is a portion of a film I made for high school students on the Sputnik Moment. I was fortunate to find amazing old footage to prove just how powerful it was when America came together, left and right, to create a better education system. That system produced NASA, the Internet, miniaturization, a generation of great male and female scientists, and so much more. And I find it just amazing to watch these old films come together. I hope that you do as well.
