Somewhere Beyond which explores the history and future of space colonies.

Someday Somewhere Beyond was directed and edited by
Jonathan Minard, and has some wonderful conceptual animation by artist Bryan
Versteeg and features interviews with Robert Zubrin and Margarita Marinova.
In the following segment Robert Zubrin, author and
aerospace engineer, has the blueprints to build a colony on Mars. He and NASA
Ames researcher Margarita Marinova explain how and why humans will one day turn
the Red Planet green, establishing the next frontier of technological
innovation and seeding the universe with new branches of life.
This documentary is a production of Deepspeed Media.
Deepspeed media
was formed around a shared belief that ideas, particularly in the domains of
science and art, benefit from creative intermediaries: communicators and
evangelists who awaken and spread the sense of wonder driving discovery.
We use
documentary as a platform to share stories about people working at the
frontiers: in obscure domains, on the peripheries of culture, maybe
inaccessible at some remote edge of the known world. Deepspeed seeks to craft
the dispatches for these explorers, whose daily lives have the power to
inspire. We wish to illuminate these subjects—the scientists, artists, and
their pursuits—with our own spirit of curiosity, and to celebrate the alien and
mysterious.
Author's note: Be sure to visit by artist Bryan Versteeg's fantastic website which contains some of the finest examples of his concept space art and animation.
