What kind of future do we want to live in—and who will shape it? This provocative panel explores why American leadership in space is not just about rockets or exploration, but about safeguarding our national security, economic competitiveness, as well as inspiring our collective imagination. From immersive storytelling and impact games to the power of worldbuilding, panelists will examine how entertainment and experiential media can influence public perception, fuel innovation, and empower the next generation to engage with space technology and policy in deeply personal ways. Drawing on real-world constraints—like limited funding, geopolitical tensions, and the fragmentation of public trust—this session highlights the urgent need to reframe space not as a distant frontier, but as an active platform for designing the future. Dystopian narratives have dominated for too long; now is the time to co-create an evocative, aspirational, and achievable vision for humanity on the Moon and beyond. This session is a call to action—for builders, dreamers, and decision-makers—to claim tomorrow, together.
