Maine Space Stories celebrates the rich history of space exploration by inviting Mainers to share their personal space stories, creating an invaluable video archive for generations to come.
Maine Space Stories is a project of the Challenger Learning Center of Maine. Stories in this collection were recorded during NASA's Week of Remembrance, from January 22-26, 2024. The interviews took place onsite at the Challenger Learning Center in Bangor and over Zoom.
