One Giant Leap (S01E04)

In 1969, a million people flock to Kennedy Space Center to watch the historic launch of Apollo 11. This mission represents the pinnacle of ten years marked by commitment, sacrifice, and the drive to explore another world. The nation’s aspirations hinge on the next eight days. Reflect on this extraordinary human endeavor, brought to life through both iconic and seldom-seen footage, along with archival interviews featuring astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins, as well as hidden treasures from the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum.
