The moon has captivated humanity's imagination for millennia. For countless generations, we've gazed up at that glowing orb in the night sky, wondering about its mysteries. But on July 20, 1969, everything changed. On that historic day, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on lunar soil. This is the story of how we got there - a tale of ambition, politics, tragedy, and triumph. I'm James Donovan, and I've spent years researching the space race and Apollo program. As we embark on this journey together, I'll take you behind the scenes of one of humanity's greatest adventures. We'll meet the brave astronauts, brilliant engineers, and dedicated support staff who made the impossible possible. From the shock of Sputnik to the nail-biting final moments of the lunar landing, this is the story of how we shot for the moon - and made it.
