What a wonderful movie that connects kids with STEAM in such a real world and impressive setting as NASA.

I loved the diversity of the participants’ genders and backgrounds and the length was just long enough for a science-type documentary as well.  Many kids will be talking about this film with their science teachers.”

WHY THIS FILM?

Zero Gravity shines its brightest not just during the incredible sequences in space, but right here on Earth where innovation, inclusion, and opportunity meet — in the classroom. Friendships are made, codes are broken, and dreams are awoken during the team’s programming mission amongst the stars, all in service of developing important life lessons along the way.

Coding is a universal, skills-based language that children from around the globe can rally behind, and Zero Gravity provides a unique peer-to-peer perspective that aims to inspire, ignite, and launch new generations towards the world of possibilities in STEM-centric career paths, and most especially into categories of jobs that don’t yet exits.
