Moon Shot (1994)

El Apolo 13 inicia su viaje a la luna en abril de 1970. Cuando la tripulación está a punto de llegar a su destino, una explosión en el espacio les hace perder oxígeno, energía y el curso de la nave... Todo se convierte en una situación desesperada para los tres hombres tripulantes, especialmente cuando el oxígeno amenaza con agotarse. Mientras, el mundo entero, que apenas un año antes conoció la gloria de la aventura espacial cuando el hombre pisó la luna, contiene la respiración a la espera de ver cómo acaba tan angustiosa espera.

Cuenta la historia de la misión de la NASA que llevó al primer hombre a la luna, centrada en Neil Armstrong y el periodo comprendido entre los años 1961 y 1969. Un relato en primera persona, basado en la novela de James R. Hansen, que explora el sacrificio y el precio que representó, tanto para Armstrong como para Estados Unidos, una de las misiones más peligrosas de la historia.

El baúl de la NASA se abre para proporcionar material inédito sobre la misión "Apollo 11", que llevaría por primera vez al hombre a la Luna. Las cámaras ubicadas en Cabo Cañaveral capturan los momentos más importantes del despegue de la nave. Unidas a las escenas filmadas en el interior del cohete espacial, ambas perspectivas ofrecen una visión íntima sobre las sensaciones que experimentaron los astronautas durante su misión.

Estamos en 1967, y la Guerra Fría está caliente, caliente, con la carrera espacial como punta de lanza. La CIA cree que un espía ruso se ha infiltrado en la NASA para sabotear el programa Apollo, y tienen la “brillante” idea de mandar a unos agentes del departamento de audiovisual para que se hagan pasar por documentalistas y desenmascaren al topo. Lo que descubrirán, sin embargo, será algo mucho peor.

This is the story of their lives and the amazing story of how they became the first human beings to travel beyond the confines of planet earth and reach the Moon. First to the Moon tells the amazing story of the Apollo 8 mission and the three men that crewed it. Through restored archival films from NASA, The National Archives, and the Astronaut’s own personal collections, this documentary takes you through time from the upbringing of each crew member and onward to present day.

A través de imágenes de archivo de la NASA y entrevistas con científicos espaciales dela misión Apolo, este documento explora los primeros días de entrenamiento de aquellos astronautas, auténticos pioneros que consiguieron alcanzar la superficie lunar y regresar sanos y salvos a la Tierra. ‘Los astronautas del Apolo’, muestra la increíble historia de cómo la NASA entrenó a los mejores pilotos de Estados Unidos para viajar a la Luna, y conseguir un mítico salto al espacio para toda la humanidad.

The inside story of America's race to the moon.

A collection of NASA films, from Project Mercury to the Space Shuttle.

From 1957 —the year in which the Soviets put the Sputnik 1 satellite into orbit— to 1969 —when American astronaut Neil Armstrong walked on the surface of the moon—, the beginnings of the space conquest were depicted in popular culture: cinema, television, comics and literature of the time contain numerous references to an imagined future.

This is the complete story of NASA's Moon Missions, from Apollo 1 to Apollo 17, told for the first time using 4K and HD original footage taken by astronauts from the most iconic space voyages in history.

Relive humankind's incredible accomplishment of walking on the moon in this program that presents highlights of Walter Cronkite and the CBS News Team's comprehensive coverage of the thrilling nine-day Apollo 11 mission. Then, Cronkite reports on the treacherous voyage of Apollo 13, as the brave crew struggles to regain control after an explosion rips through the ship hundreds of thousands of miles above Earth.

On July 16, 1969, hundreds of thousands of spectators and an army of reporters gathered at Cape Kennedy to witness one of the great spectacles of the century: the launch of Apollo 11. Over the next few days, the world watched on with wonder and rapture as humankind prepared for its "one giant leap" onto the moon--and into history. Witness this incredible day, presented through stunning, remastered footage and interviews that takes you behind-the-scenes and inside the spacecraft, Mission Control, and the homes of the astronaut's families.

A documentary about the Apollo 17 mission to the Taurus-Littrow on the moon, the final lunar landing mission in the Apollo program, December 1972. Produced by A-V Corporation for NASA. The film was distributed both as an ephemeral film (shown to an audience via a 16mm film projector), and was also shown on TV (and was shown on both public and commercial stations per a search of vintage newspapers).

Apollo astronauts and engineers tell the inside story of Apollo 8, the first manned mission to the moon. The U.S. space program suffered a bitter setback when Apollo 1 ended in a deadly fire during a pre-launch run-through. In disarray, and threatened by the prospect of a Soviet Union victory in the space race, NASA decided upon a radical and risky change of plan: turn Apollo 8 from an earth-orbit mission into a daring sprint to the moon while relying on untried new technologies. Fifty years after the historic mission, the Apollo 8 astronauts and engineers recount the feats of engineering that paved the way to the moon.
