Help Choose The Best Aerospace Innovation Challenge Public Service Announcement About NASA
Keith’s note: Please look at all six videos and then chose the one that best conveys its message. Your vote (and comments) will help judges select the best video for this course at Santa Clara University. The challenge given to students was:
“NASA is at a crossroads. With a new President and Administrator, we await a revitalized vision. The Shuttle nears retirement and Space Station utilization is low. We debate sending humans to the Moon or to Mars, and we question whether human space flight should even be a priority. Commercial development of space is poised to take off, and national priorities such as the economy, climate change, anti-terrorism, and health care compete for public money and attention. Are investments in space and space technology still the path to a preeminent education system, to an innovation economy, to a secure and globally prominent country? Your task, the second in the SCU Aerospace Innovation Challenge, is to develop a 1 minute YouTube video to excite the public, especially your own generation, about NASA and the challenges – and opportunities – that it faces.”
