Live Premiere of The High Frontier: The Untold Story of Gerard K. O'Neill will be on spacechannel.com on April 17th, 2021 (8pm ET, 5pm PT). The High Frontier tells the untold story of Dr. Gerard K. O'Neill who in 1977 wrote the book, The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space, which sparked a grassroots movement to build Earth-like habitats in space in order to solve Earth's greatest crises.
Dr. Gerard K. O'Neill was an American physicist, inventor, and space activist best known for writing the 1977 book, The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space. The book details how humans could build rotating space habitats in low-Earth orbit using a design he called the "O'Neill Cylinder." The habitat could recreate Earth's gravity and would house millions of people for work and play, eventually solving the major concerns facing Earth such as hunger, overpopulation, dwindling resources, and war. His book and activism launched the movement to the global stage, forever inspiring a generation of free thinkers and space leaders, altering the course of American space industry forever. Dr. O'Neill passed in 1992 from Leukemia, but his vision still lives on thanks to the "Gerry's Kids," those who were inspired by Dr. O'Neill and keep his vision alive today.
