Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin turn their cameras to the skies for the first time, revealing SpaceX's inspiring rise and two decades of efforts by Elon Musk to reinvigorate America's aspirations for space travel. With a rare inside look at the crewed flight from US soil to space for the first time since the Space Shuttle decommissioned in 2011, this documentary is an intimate portrait of the engineers and astronauts selected for this historic moment. Returning to Space, which features NASA veterans Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley and their families before takeoff, takes viewers on their exciting journey to the International Space Station. In addition, viewers witness the excitement of Musk and his SpaceX team at the mission control center as they struggle to return the astronauts to Earth with a dramatic landing on water.
