- Synopsis:
With these words, President John F. Kennedy signalled the start of a space race that was to end with Neil Armstrong stepping on to the surface of the Moon. But what of the history of the Apollo programme, of their great exploratory successes and the human cost of their spectacular failures? Join astronomer Sir Patrick Moore, for many the voice of the Moon Landings, as he explains the Apollo programme in fascinating detail, with access to unique NASA footage and the Science Museum's Space Expedition. From the launch pad disaster of the Apollo 1 mission, which lead to the tragic deaths of three astronauts, to Armstrong's historical 'giant leap for mankind' and the Apollo 13 explosion, where the world held its breath and prayed for the safety of those onboard, Sir Patrick Moore takes us on a cosmic journey of discovery. - Actors:
