Plot Synopsis:
What do the Chrysler Building, the Golden Gate Bridge, the film Destination Moon and America's space program all have in common? They were each touched by the creative vision of a forgotten artist named Chesley Bonestell (1888-1986). Told by the people who were influenced by or knew Chesley personally, and punctuated with rare interview footage of Chesley himself, this documentary film chronicles the life of a quiet, artistic visionary, whose beautiful paintings continue to inspire us to reach for the stars.
