Synopsis
A special which questions whether the future exploration of space, specifically a mission to Mars, should be a joint effort of the United States and the Soviet Union, perhaps with other nations. The program captures the highlights of an unprecedented three and one-half-hour "Spacebridge" held July 18, 1987, when a group of American scientists, engineers, and astronauts, assembled in Boulder, Colorado, and were linked, utilizing technology inaugurated by Sputnik and its successors, to a team of Soviet scientists, engineers, and cosmonauts meeting in Moscow.
