Story of the space shuttle: return to flight
This Discovery Channel documentary goes behind the scenes with NASA's Space Shuttle programme. Narrated by actor Gary Sinise, the documentary follows a group of NASA employees as they try to deal with the aftermath of the 2003 Space Shuttle Columbia disaster and look to the future. Tragic as the loss of the seven Columbia astronauts was, plans to launch another Shuttle, Discovery, increasingly preoccupy the staff and they are determined that this craft will carry its crew to space and back safely.
