In 2022, Katrina researched, produced, scripted, edited, and narrated the documentary “Behind the Name: James Webb Space Telescope'' for the JustSpace Alliance, a nonprofit advocating for a more inclusive and ethical future in space. The video discussed James Webb's role in the Cold War and Lavender Scare, experiences of LGBTQIA+ people in astronomy, and why many people want to change the name of NASA's newest observatory. Press coverage included the documentary airing on Democracy Now.
