I am old enough to remember all that went on during one of the most interesting times in American history. I was a junior in high school when Kennedy announced that we would be putting a man on the moon, This series narrated by Tom Hanks chronicles our quest for the moon. If you are an educator I'm sure you can find a way to include this fine series in your curriculum. My kids have enjoyed it through the years.

Excellent chronology of the "space race". However, seemed disjointed at times with minimal transition between episodes. Felt like I didn't really get to know the characters.

A well done behind the scene look at the Apollo space program. It is surprising how quickly the nation began to take for granted going to the moon. However, those involved with the space program never lost sight of the reality of the life and dead situations that were face with every launch. This video package is a must for every space and history buff.
Great . I love these dvds. They are informative and entertaining look into the US space program . So if you like history or drama you should enjoy these.

It's a wonderful depiction of what the Apollo flights were like. I love the background they give on each of the missions.
