This film shows a panel discussion from the groundbreaking 1995 conference, "Piercing the Curtain: Corona and the Revolution in Intelligence," about the US's first photo-reconnaissance (spy) satellite program.
This panel is comprised of people who worked on Corona, including a former director of the National Reconnaissance Office, a former director of the National Security Agency, and a former Secretary of the Air Force.
The film was recently released due to a Mandatory Declassification Review request, and was digitized and posted by The Memory Hole. For more info and films from the conference, see

The streaming version has been posted as one file, but the three non-streaming versions (at various resolutions) have been broken into two parts each.
