In the mid-1980s, Marvel partnered with a new organization designed to interest America's youth in math and science through space exploration. Marvel helped the Young Astronauts Council license themselves with partners like Pepsi and McDonald's as well as developed a comic book and cartoon show. This episode shares the few remaining pieces of the canceled project that led to a lawsuit between the two organizations.
