Welcome to A Look Back, where we review and celebrate select clips from the overwhelmingly voluminous video catalog and the many splendid works of Stephen T. Colbert et. al. over the years.
With space shuttle Atlantis touching down for the last time on July 21, 2011, manned American space flight is clearly in a time of transition. Anyone who has watched the Report long enough surely realizes that Stephen is, and I say this with total affection, a space geek. The extensive NASA and space mentions on the Report have done a great deal to promote the cause for the space program, and NASA has been generous in returning the favor, even naming a space treadmill, the C.O.L.B.E.R.T., after Stephen. Let’s take a look back at some great moments in space.
