NASA has released a free-to-view documentary celebrating Blackastronauts and their contribution to the American space program.
The Color of Space landed on YouTube on Sunday, June 19, as part of Juneteenth, the federal holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the U.S.
Harris says in The Color of Space that he chose his career path after watching coverage of NASA’s space program as he grew up in the 1960s, including footage of the first moon landing by Neil Armstrong at the end of that decade. However, Harris adds that he noticed at the time that there were few Black people working at NASA.
