Watch all 6 episodes of Space Race 101

You can binge watch every episode of Space Race 101 on my Youtube channel. These short videos about space and rocketry are exactly like BBC documentaries, if the BBC studios burned down, everyone quit, and one person was left to do everything with their phone. Enjoy!

Space Race 101 - Episode 2: What's a rocket?

Hi! Episode 2 of this super-professional, big budget video series about the space race is available now on my Youtube channel

Introducing SPACE RACE 101!

One of the things I like most about writing books is learning new things and I learned a ton writing A HISTORY OF WHAT COMES NEXT. I knew almost nothing about the war when I began, very little of the space race and rocketry. There is a “Further Reading” section at the end of the novel where I discuss some of the events and people in the story. That said, there’s a lot that didn’t make it in, so I made a series of super professional videos about the space race. There are six videos. They’re part science, part history, and probably part wrong (I’m not a historian or a rocket scientist), but I tried to make it fun.

The first episode is here and on my Youtube channel
