Location: Yellow Box | 1635 Emerson Lane, Naperville, IL 60540

Space MOMs is produced and director by Radha Bharadwaj. Inspired by the true story of the women engineers behind India's 2014 Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), Space MOMs tells the story of normal, middle class working moms who also happen to be rocket scientists working on a very important mission. As the "Space Moms" struggle to pull off an unprecedented feat against impossible odds, they have to balance their brutal work schedules with their family lives.
It is an inspirational story not only for Indians, but for people of all backgrounds who can connect to the universal themes of love, hard work, family, dreaming big, persistence, and rooting for the underdog. Space MOMs is an inspirational film for young girls--and young boys--around the world to pursue their education, especially in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
The "Space Moms" prove that not all heroes wear capes: Some heroes wear saris.
