Completing the mission: Documentary bookends local painter's place in Ohio's outer space history
When Bill Hinsch set out to paint a 9-by-12 foot painting of Ohio’s most famous astronauts commissioned for the statehouse rotunda in 2023, he wasn’t sure if he could complete the job. He was 69 years old. He had just had two hip replacements. The painting would require him to stand on a scaffold for hours a day, working at a scale much larger than he had worked before. Yet one year, and some 1,000 hours of work later, Bill Hinsch, a Perrysburg resident, finished Ohioans in Space. The painting now hangs in the statehouse, in homage to Ohio’s remarkable astronaut legacy. Now, Bill Hinsch’s son, Alex Hinsch, has directed a documentary about his father’s painting. The documentary, titled Cradle of Astronauts, will highlight Bill Hinsch’s work on the painting and also tell the story of Ohio’s role in the history of NASA – bringing focus to the state’s “small-town heroes” who left their mark on U.S. space history.
