IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON explores the period from 1968 to 1972, in which nine American spacecrafts voyaged to the moon, and nine men walked upon its surface. Through interviews with the surviving astronauts and digitally re-mastered footage from NASA archives, much of it never before seen, the documentary captures the excitement and awe of this revolutionary stage in history. For the first, and possibly last time, IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON brings together crew members from every Apollo mission that flew to the moon, to create an epic that vividly and intimately portrays the danger, the courage, the passion, and the pride that characterized these extraordinary expeditions.
