After being given preliminary approval for a screening of The Mysterious Islands film, officials at the United States Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have rejected the film which is critical of Charles Darwin, as being too controversial.

A representative for Vision Forum Ministries had been given a preliminary go-ahead by event coordinators for the Space Center, but was later informed that The Mysterious Islands would be blocked from appearing at the theater after officials looked at the website and deemed the film too controversial.

The theater of the Davidson Center Auditorium at the United States Space and Rocket Center is a government-run agency and taxpayer-subsidized venue which is open to the general public for private rentals and screenings. According to federal law, it is not supposed to discriminate on the basis of religion.
