I'm normally a very picky sort when it comes to albums, choosing songs and deleting tracks ruthlessly. But I couldn't find one of the 24 tracks that I wanted to delete. They're all worthwhile and I don't regret buying the album one bit.

As for the music itself, it's just magical. It perfectly communicates the wonder of space travel and the respect to the unique accomplishment of the Apollo program. It actually made me tear up a bit in places.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't ask for a better way to set the mood for such an epic movie, September 15, 2008

I have been a big nut of space exploration from reading as much as i could growing up about the apollo mission's to discovering the giant stack of National Geographic in 6th grade and madly searching for anything dealing with the Space Shuttle and the like. This movie singlehandedly brought back every emotion I felt as a child for the excitement of space exploration and then some expertly bringing to light that fateful day in July of 1969. The music selected to bring forth this feeling was so well done that even just listening to the previews before i bought it gave me chills.

Granted I'm partial the soundtracks for movies in the first place so I conclude with simply this; If you loved the movie, there's a good chance you'll love the soundtrack as well.

Majestic musical score that accompanies a documentary of one of our most important human achievements.
