How NASA's Apollo Program Took Humanity to the Moon

From the first Mercury astronauts to the final footsteps of Apollo 17, this documentary tells the extraordinary story of how NASA trained a generation of pilots, engineers, and explorers to achieve the impossible. Through brutal survival courses, zero-gravity flights, underwater simulations, lunar landing trainers, and years of relentless preparation, America's astronauts learned the skills needed to travel 250,000 miles to the Moon, land on another world, conduct scientific research, and return safely to Earth.
