On 16th July 1969, three men sit at the top of a towering rocket. Strapped into their Command Module, the astronauts brace themselves as the engines roar into life, flames lick out from beneath the rocket, and the ground starts to tremble. They are going where no one has ever been before.
This is the story of the legendary Apollo 11 mission – and the men and women on the ground who made it happen.
