Spacewoman
Global headlines for the story of the first female space commander
Spacewoman is an epic new film celebrating the extraordinary achievements of astronaut Eileen Collins
Borkowski was enlisted to generate media coverage for the UK cinematic release of Spacewoman, to help the independent project punch above its weight.
We tapped into the uniqueness of Eileen Collins’ story and its relevance to the glut of space stories in the news cycle, from the Artemis missions, to SpaceX, to Blue Origin. We positioned Eileen not only as a historic figure with a great story, but an expert on humanity’s next generation of aspiring space travellers.
The story captured the national and international imagination, with BBC News running a series of interviews across their top reports, including BBC Breakfast, Today, World Service, the BBC News website, News Now, socials, and over twenty regional BBC Radio Stations.
Other major broadcast coverage included a feature on ITV’s Lorraine, an interview with Christiane Amanpour on CNN International’s flagship news magazine and a feature on Sky News.
Other features included The Observer, ShortList, The Week Junior, SpaceFlight Magazine and the ‘Space Boffins’ Podcast.
