• The Apollo Story - Book & DVD Set | DVD | (13/12/2010) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £14.99

  The 21st July 1969 will live long in the memories of those lucky enough to witness the events being beamed live into their living room and remember the pride felt as man conquered the final frontier. This special programme explores those inspiring events as Neil Armstrong stepped down from Eagle and in to the pages of history with the immortal words that's one small step for man one giant leap for mankind. Using archive footage this double-sided DVD covers the lunar missions from Apollo 11 to the safe return of Apollo 17 and includes the fateful mission of Apollo 13. The Apollo Story Book: The pinnacle of the Apollo programme was the first steps taken on the moon by Neil Armstrong in 1969. This came at a price: the launch pad fire of Apollo 1 and the drama of Apollo 13. From these beginnings the Apollo programme went on to push the boundaries of endurance in space with Skylab and ended with the Americans and Soviets joining forces in orbit. Eight short years saw not only an incredible technological achievement but also the unbelievable bravery of an elite team of astronauts who rode into the unknown on the most powerful rockets ever devised. With fascinating 'Did You Know' facts this book narrates the entire Apollo story.
