Rent The Sky at Night: Apollo 11: A Night to Remember (2009)

In a pioneering speech on May 25th 1961, President John F. Kennedy pledged that America would land a man on the moon before the end of the decade. The pledge was fulfilled when Apollo 11 manned by Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins successfully completed its mission in July 1969. This special Sky at Night film, introduced by Sir Patrick Moore, pays tribute to this phenomenal undertaking and celebrates what has been described as the greatest adventure of all time. Through the painstaking reassembly of historic videotape, clips and sound archive, together with original NASA footage of the mission, A Night to Remember relives the momentous epoch in which man first went to the moon.
