The great technological leaps in American history have often featured influential industrialists who step forward as vanguards, leading the way to a better tomorrow while emerging as major players in extreme endeavors.
Spaceflight is no exception.
A new CNN documentary titled "Eclipsing Power: Musk, Bezos, and the New Space Race" shines a light on how a pair of visionary billionaires, Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos , have been shaping and steering our country's space program and the bright future of private space enterprise .
Premiering on Sunday (Aug. 9) at 8 p.m. EDT/PDT on CNN, the documentary examines the contributions of the two men and how their considerable wealth have affected America's spaceflight efforts. It also features exclusive interviews with Chief Ambassador of The Planetary Society Bill Nye , NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman , journalist and CNN contributor Kara Swisher, Elon Musk biographer Walter Isaacson and many others.
"'Eclipsing Power' traces how Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have transformed the future of space exploration, shifting what was once an endeavor primarily led by government into a race driven by private ambition," states the show's official synopsis.
"It follows the rise of SpaceX and Blue Origin , detailing how two of the world's most influential entrepreneurs have come to play an outsized role in America's space program. The hour looks at both the opportunities and the risks of NASA's growing reliance on private industry, the race to return humans to the moon , and what this new era of commercial spaceflight could mean for the future of humanity."
"What am I most excited about in space exploration?," Nye shares in our exclusive clip. "Well, for me, discovering evidence of life elsewhere . Maybe the rocks on Mars . Maybe under the ice on Europa , the moon of Jupiter with twice as much ocean water as Earth. Maybe Enceladus or Titan . It would change the course of human history. We’ll see you up there!"
