A SPACE FLIGHT AROUND THE EARTH (1963)

Gary Goldsmith - Executive Producer

Children ride along on an actual space flight. Looking back, they see the earth’s roundness, its blue oceans and white clouds, its land, and the thin layer of air around it. Moving into the earth’s shadow, they see the cause of day and night. In space, the sky is black, and gravity seems to lose its pull. 12 minutes 1963
