With precision that rivaled a Swiss watch, the trips almost became commonplace. Now with the shuttles retired, we are left to look at the program from a historical perspective, as we try to understand just what it meant to the next chapter in space exploration.That question will be explored in a joint K2/GSF production, "Journey to Space." The film will celebrate what these icons of space travel contributed to the global advancement of space exploration. The film's look to the future will explore how the shuttle helped provide the foundation for our next planetary space race, and humankind's first visit to Mars. The opening act for the trip to the Red Planet will be the capture and relocation of a nearby asteroid. For many of us, this will all happen during our lifetime.</BLOCKQUOTE> STS-135 commander Chris Ferguson <A HREF="https://twitter.com/astro_ferg/status/428593654773477376" TARGET=_blank>tweeted</A> about "Journey to Space," which is filming at Johnson Space Center's Space Vehicle Mockup Facility: <BLOCKQUOTE>Making "Journey to Space".

Patrick Stewart to narrate NASA's 'trek' to Mars in giant-screen 'Journey to Space'
An actor famous for his role commanding a fictional starship will narrate NASA's real 'trek' to Mars in a new giant-screen film.
Patrick Stewart, who as Jean-Luc Picard helmed the USS Enterprise on "Star Trek: The Next Generation," is lending his voice to "Journey to Space," a new large-format movie about the concepts, hardware and people carrying out the next generation missions to make humanity a spacefaring civilization.
"It was a delight to contribute to this exciting film project," Stewart said in a statement. "['Journey to Space'] will let audiences young and old know how surprisingly close we are to sending humans into deep space."

Now playing: 'Journey To Space' launches into giant-screen theaters
A new giant-screen documentary is now launching audiences on a "Journey to Space."
"Journey To Space," narrated by actor Patrick Stewart, is now playing at NASA visitor centers, space museums and science centers across the U.S., with more venues being added weekly. The large-format movie, co-produced by K2 and Giant Screen Films, showcases NASA's plans for the future of spaceflight, including landing astronauts on Mars.
"Now we are fashioning vessels to set off on our greatest adventure of exploration ever, to Mars and beyond," says Stewart, who played Star Trek's Capt. Jean-Luc Picard, in the opening moments of "Journey To Space."
