    • Synopsis
    • NASA’s vaults open for the first time to spill this exquisite, never-before-seen audio and 70 mm film footage of the Apollo 11 mission. The meandering cameras in Cape Canaveral capture a dreamy-eyed portrait of America as it stepped into the future, and from inside the Apollo 11 shuttle, the amazingly jocular conversation of the astronauts punctuates each stage of the mission with lightness and charm. Yet the crowds watching the shuttle are oblivious to the enormous pressure mission control is under to succeed.
