A DCF Research Report, Part 1
In a first-of-its-kind study, Brett Carollo sketches the contours of the vast and mostly hidden relationship between NASA and Hollywood, largely as revealed in the available documentary evidence. As Director of Research Operations at the DCF, Brett obtained almost all of these records himself, through FOIA requests, the National Archives and other archives, and through direct communication with Bert Ulrich, NASA’s entertainment liaison. Part 1 of this report also explains how NASA, from its origin, has been mutually entangled with Disney and the military-industrial complex, and it indicates why Hollywood-DC is about more than militainment or even the national security state.
