This amazing documentary sheds fresh light on what was perhaps the single most inspiring achievement of the 20th century – the landing of man on the moon. 24 humans have travelled to the moon, and 12 have walked on its surface – and nine of the latter group are interviewed here. This astonishing movie features previously unseen footage from NASA’s own archives – jaw-dropping pictures of Earth as seen from space that underline the beauty and fragility of our world, as well as humanity’s ability to turn science fiction into fact.

Fascinating facts
Because there is no wind or water erosion on the moon, the footprints made by the astronauts on its surface are expected to last for 10 million years.
