Multiverse Media and Space Channel hosted the global premiere of the documentary April 17, on, and it was released for on-demand streaming the next day.Įqual Opportunity and Nondiscrimination at Princeton University: Princeton University believes that commitment to principles of fairness and respect for all is favorable to the free and open exchange of ideas, and the University seeks to reach out as widely as possible in order to attract the ablest individuals as students, faculty, and staff. Numerous scenes take place in University classrooms, conference halls and common spaces. A large portion of the historical footage used in the film comes from University archives, newspapers and TV shows shot on campus. The film was written and produced by Will Henry, a longtime Princeton resident. During his time at Princeton, O’Neill also hosted a series of Space Manufacturing Conferences, yearly gatherings to spread the word about his space habitat concepts, which drew attendees from all over the country. In 1977, O’Neill and his wife Tasha launched the Space Studies Institute, a nonprofit space and science research organization whose offices remained in Princeton until 2009. In 1965 he became a full professor, and when he retired in 1985, he was granted emeritus status, which he held until his death on April 27, 1992. O’Neill first came to Princeton as a physics instructor in 1954, and he was promoted to assistant professor two years later. Clarke, Johnny Carson, Dan Rather, and many young aerospace engineers and scientists inspired by O’Neill’s work who call themselves “Gerry’s Kids.” The film also features Elon Musk, Isaac Asimov, Freeman Dyson ( a professor emeritus at the Institute for Advanced Study), Arthur C.
The documentary shows how O'Neill's book and activism launched the space-habitat movement to the global stage, inspiring a generation of free thinkers and space leaders - and altering the course of the U.S. While at Princeton, Bezos attended O’Neill’s seminars and ran the campus chapter of “Students for the Exploration and Development of Space.” Through Blue Origin, which he has called his “most important work,” Bezos is developing detailed plans to realize O’Neill’s vision. In the documentary, O’Neill’s story unfolds from the perspectives of his peers, family and the younger generation who now lead the modern space industry, including Jeff Bezos of the Class of 1986, who founded and the aerospace company Blue Origin.
