From YouTube, produced by European Space Agency (ESA)
Science fiction has always provided inspiration and ideas for the scientists and engineers who design and build real spacecraft. Many of our current technologies were predicted long ago in science fiction stories. Arthur C. Clarke, scientist turned writer, wrote the screenplay for 2001: A Space Odyssey. The narrator descibes space stations, spaceships, and the influence of Jules Verne's story From The Earth To The Moon on scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky. This ESA Space-in-Bytes production mentions ESA rocket launchers. International space agencies are researching interstellar space travel. Science fiction continues to inspire scientists as they plan missions to our solar system. Color video, slides, and sound effects; 2008. (6:24 min.)
