Operation Space Station: High Risk Build

Operation Space Station: High Risk Build is a documentary screening that gets into the grit of the International Space Station’s construction, with astronauts and Mission Control insiders recounting the scariest moments — ammonia leaks, shuttle disasters, and a spacewalk that went sideways. The hour-long film, which is not rated, screens at Jeffery Manor on Tuesday, November 17, from 2:00 to 3:00 PM. Subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing will be available. The screening ties into the 2026 One Book, One Chicago season, which centers on Samantha Harvey’s *Orbital*, and registration is currently open.
