New Race For Space

Partnering with actor-producer Morgan Freeman, the network has greenlit "New Race for Space". The three-part series will look at entrepreneurs seeking to embark on various ventures beyond Earth, from backyard dreamers to well-funded moguls like SpaceX founder Elon Musk, Virgin Galactic’s Richard Branson and sci-fi filmmaker James Cameron.

“It’s been almost 45 years since we landed on the moon, since we were really excited about going out into space, and I’ve always thought it was a mistake not to continue that exploration,” executive producer Freeman told EW. “I’m personally excited that we now have entrepreneurs who are interested in doing this.” (Source: The Science Channel)
