Nearly half a century after the last Apollo mission, we're poised to return to the Moon, our celestial neighbor and the essential stepping stone for deep-space travel to Mars and beyond. This documentary details the initial Space Race between the US and the USSR, from the first crash landings of Luna 2 to the historic manned landings, revealing new scientific knowledge about the Moon's hot, shrinking core, ancient volcanism, and the critical discovery of water ice at its poles.
