- A prescient documentary about city planning, which presents idyllic suburbs and nuclear families as a solution to the chaos, poverty and social decay of industrialized inner cities.
- Solarmax is a 40-minute giant-screen documentary that tells the story of humankind's struggle to understand the sun. The film will take audiences on an incredible voyage from pre-history to the leading edge of today's contemporary solar science.
- Dramatic forces reshape Earth's climate every day. Using an astounding collection of satellite imagery, novel time lapse footage, and inventive 360 photography, Frozen presents those places on Earth most susceptible to rapid change.
- An investigation of 1930s new towns planned and built in the USA during the Depression, and how they fare today.
- Just Another Bombing?: This is Donal and Iona's Story takes audiences on a poignant journey through a little-known incident of the 1960s Civil Rights era. Iona Godfrey King and her son Donal Godfrey share their deeply moving account of surviving a Klan bombing of their home with three other family members on February 16, 1964, in Jacksonville, Fla. The reason for the bombing? Six-year-old Donal was the first Black student to enroll in the neighborhood Lackawanna Elementary School. The documentary (25 min.) relies on interviews with King and Godfrey, archival footage, and FBI and court documents to explore moments leading up to and after the domestic-terror attack. Ms. King was a 24-year-old domestic worker at the time. She says that she acted on her own to send her son to the whites-only school believing he would be safe. She knew nothing of a NAACP plan in the works to integrate Jacksonville's schools. To the media, it was just another bombing of another Black family. "It was expected," says Ms. King. The silence from city and school officials was deafening. No one talked about it. The incident is seldom included among historical accounts of school desegregation in Jacksonville. Filmmaker Hal Jacobs, the same age as Donal, lived a few streets over in the segregated white section of the neighborhood. He only learned about the incident a few years ago from an online article by Jacksonville author Tim Gilmore.
- A young man has to choose between joining his mob family's illegal activity or giving it up for the love of his life.
- The promo was produced for the 2010 Utopia Film Festival.
- Follow scientists and engineers at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center as they build the X-ray Telescopes and an X-ray Spectrometer for the Japanese X-ray Observatory Astro-E2 mission. These instruments use unique technologies to provide light-weight but sensitive instruments. We see the team face and overcome challenges, as well as their interactions with the Japanese colleagues. This program also describes the science of spectroscopy and what the satellite helps us to learn about objects such as black holes. The included educator guide provides instructions for using the "Building the Coolest X-ray Satellite" DVD in the classroom. The guide includes discussion questions and activities related to the program content. The topics covered include science careers, optics, cryogenics, X-ray astronomy and working on an international project.

- The Earth is not flat. That's the conceptual spark for a new film created at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Using an advanced media projection technology called Science On a Sphere developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), FOOTPRINTS is the first fully produced film of its kind. The movie presents advanced satellite data and other visual effects on a dramatic spherical screen, affording viewers a chance to experience planets and planetary science in a way that's more natural to their actual appearance. The Earth guest stars in a variety of guises, from depictions of the biosphere to planetary views of city lights at night to dramatic examinations about the science of hurricane formation. Other moons and planets make exciting cameos too, with special presentations of Mars and Earth's moon. What's more, the two agencies have announced that they're releasing this new production to a consortium of science museums that already have Spheres on display. In ten U.S. cities this fall FOOTPRINTS will join other supporting Spheres on public exhibition.
