Chasing the moon

Chasing the Moon reimagines the race to the moon for a new generation, upending much of the conventional mythology surrounding the effort. The series recasts the Space Age as a fascinating stew of scientific innovation, political calculation, media spectacle, visionary impulses, and personal drama. With no narration and using only archival footage - including a visual feast of previously lost or overlooked material - the film features a diverse cast of characters who played key roles in these historic events.
