Dalla Terra alla Luna

La drammatica storia delle indimenticabili missioni Apollo e dei loro eroici astronauti, dallo storico discorso del presidente John F. Kennedy, passando per le prime spedizioni nello spazio con equipaggio a bordo, fino al momento cruciale del programma spaziale: l’uomo sulla Luna. “Un piccolo passo per un uomo… un grande passo per l’umanità”. Raccontate con una tensione narrativa senza precedenti attraverso le interpretazioni memorabili di Cary Elwes, Sally Field, Chris Isaak e tanti altri, queste sono le storie di uomini, donne e bambini che vissero, respirarono e costruirono, a partire dalla forza di volontà, uno dei successi più straordinari nella storia del genere umano.
