Heaven's My Destination

Since returning from the moon two of the Apollo astronauts - Jim Irwin and Charles Duke - have committed themselves to Christ. Other astronauts have testified to the strong spiritual impact the space experience made on them. For Ed Mitchell it led to the founding of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, dedicated to research into esp, parapsychology and the ' alternative ' sciences. In the first of 12 Everyman films we report on the other side of the space programme - not its machinery, but its meaning. Space exploration is still in its very early stages, but it has already made us view ourselves and our ' Spaceship Earth' in new ways. As space travel becomes commonplace what effect will it have on us? With the help of those who have already been there Everyman surveys our new home.
