Episode description
Thomas Verrette took a little over a month to cover a life changing competition.
Middle schoolers from across the country were competing to code satellites aboard the International Space Station and Thomas was there to tell the stories of these students with many differing backgrounds. The contest hopes to inspire students not only to reach for the stars but to use what they learned to help achieve their own dreams.
We talked to Thomas Verrette about making the documentary and the themes he hopes came through.
