Taking knowledge from past missions, this episode looks beyond NASA's fleeting visits to space. After the Moon, mankind must seek to explore deep space and learn to live beyond the Earth. This stage in space exploration heralds a replacement of rivalry with partnership; the International Space Station sees many other space agencies join the mission, with Japanese, Canadian and European astronauts working to its completion in 2010.
