Moon Landings

On 20 July 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon. This collection examines how some Apollo moon missions got off the ground, and how some came to an abrupt end. Through over 40 years of radio and TV broadcasts, we meet the men who made that incredible journey and the reporters who brought their stories into our homes. We examine the legacy of the space race and look to the future, when mankind might make that giant leap once again.
