VOICES FROM THE FIELD
SpaceIL: Connecting Past, Present, and Future
By Yariv Bash and Kfir Damari, SpaceIL co-founders
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. What themes are evident in Yariv's story?
2. Have you had a chance to sit down with your grandparents or other family members to hear their stories? What are some of the stories they tell?
3. What types of “things” are passed from one generation to the next? In what ways may they help shape our identities?
Watch another story from SpaceIL co-founder Kfir Damari:
Space and space exploration are the next frontier. The space industry has produced satellite TV, water filters, UV sunglasses, and many more inventions. SpaceIL’s success will be a source of pride for Israel while introducing the world to new and innovative ways to explore outer space. In addition, the space industry has the potential to become a major growth engine for the Israeli economy.
