5.0 out of 5 stars What a fantastic piece of work !, July 13, 2000

By	James Gillam (Stoney Creek, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews

Amazing ... the detail of this book ... facts and figures like I've never read before. This book, page after page documents the monumental struggles overcome by NASA personal in the quest to keep the United States space program alive. It's format is so easy to follow and details fall easily at hand. The rich color sections add to this book as does the fantastic CD included and at what value. I am hooked and will be reading the rest in this line. What a fantastic tool for schools ... this is the Space program like I've never seen it captured before.

Rare material here; packed with technical details. Interesting interview with Buzz Aldrin on the CD, along with the full footage of the TV broadcast from Tranquility Base. Fascinating book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Include crew debriefing from this historic mission, January 31, 2002

By	Kevin W. Parker (Greenbelt, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Long-awaited (well, several months anyway), this second volume provides the crew debriefing from the historic mission, which is my favorite section of this series. The CD also supplies a copy of the complete video of the television from the moon walk, which I am looking forward to seeing again. Surely everyone of my generation and older remembers the ghostly image of Neil Armstrong tentatively stepping onto the moon and Buzz Aldrin hopping in figure-eights around the camera as he got used to lunar gravity.

Now if they'd only do the same for Apollo 9!
