Descrição do Produto
The race to the moon was won spectacularly by Apollo 11 on 20 July 1969. When astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took their ''giant step'' across a ghostly lunar landscape, they were watched by some 600 million people on Earth 250,000 miles away.
''A Man on the Moon'' is the definitive account of the heroic Apollo programme: from the tragedy of the fire in Apollo 1 during a simulated launch, through the euphoria of the first moonwalk, to the discoveries made by the first scientist in space aboard Apollo 17. Drawing on hundreds of hours of in-depth interviews with the astronauts and team, this is the story of the twentieth century''s greatest human achievement, minute-by-minute, in the words of those who were there.
