I am a Space buff and have many such DVD's. I took a gamble on this series (did not see it on TV) and was really happy. While Apollo is given so much credit, it was hard to find good footage and info regarding the Mercury and Gemini missions, people, and equipment. This set covers it well, and the bonus features include all the stuff that didn't fit into the broadcasted segment. A 4th DVD is filled with lots of other NASA footage. If you only acquire one DVD or set on the US space program, this is the one to have!
Very good series full of historical info about the US space program beginning with the Mercury missions and the Mercury 7 astronauts. If you have the rocket/space bug, this is a great addition to your collection.

I have always been fascinated with the Space program. Even as a child I followed the the launch of Alan Sheppard as well as the rest of the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and Shuttle missions. I think I missed my true calling!!! "When we left earth" is an excellent documentary of that period. The file footage combined with the music of that era provide all the entertainment for any Nasa enthusiast. I enjoyed "When we left earth" as much as HBO's "From the earth to the Moon" a fine mini series in it's own catagory.
Great documentary on the space program from Mercury to ISS.
