The Space Shuttle. A Horizon Guide
Description
After more than 30 years of missions, America's space shuttle program concluded when the final orbiter took to the skies for the last time in 2011. Its story has been characterized by incredible triumphs, but blighted by devastating tragedies. This unique and poignant program brings together coverage from three decades of the BBC television series Horizon to present a biography of the space shuttle program and to ask what its legacy will be. Will it be remembered as an impressive part of human space exploration, or as fatally flawed?
