Stanley Kubrick’s seminal film 2001 A Space Odyssey has been scrutinised by fans and academics alike for over forty years. It’s vision of our future in space seemed effortless on the silver screen.


Discovering material thought lost forever Adam Johnson, the author of a new book, The Lost Science of 2001, has meticulously studied the science behind Kubrick’s vision. With contributions from America,  Canada, Britain, Germany, France and the former USSR, this new book re-discovers the “Lost Science” of this milestone in movie history.
