Now we're talking. Documentaries in general are just getting better and better and this movie is superb in every way. It should be like the God Father of NASA films. Every time it was on cable (couldn't remember if it was The History or Discovery Channel), I couldn't takes my eyes off of it. It's also the best movie on the subject thus far.
Excellent content - annoying intro December 18, 2008
IMHO, the series presents an objectively accurate historical perspective of the US Space program under NASA's leadership from the early days of Mercury to the ISS. The documentary's content is rich in actual footage and candid interviews with past and current NASA flight crew and staff members.
The only notable negative comment relates to the childlike "Oom De Yada" jingle in the intro, which cannot be bypassed. While it may have an appeal to the "Flower Children" of the day, it is completely out of place for the overall tenor of the documentary.

The four disc edition is an exceptional compilation of the history of NASA's manned missions into space. It should be "required reading" for anyone who wants to undertake the pursuit in the discipline of the space sciences or simply expand his/her knowledge of the evolution of the history of Earth's manned space missions and accomplishments.

Please forgive the tacky title - but I couldn't resist it. The 4 disc set is pretty bloomin' brilliant - cleaned up pictures and sound mean that this (along with "in the shadow of the moon")has the best images you are going to see this side of Spacecraft films exhaustive (and relatively expensive)collections.
It doesn't just focus on one aspect but covers all of NASA's manned programs.
Extra interviews with various astronauts (including Neil Armstrong and John Young) and a fair range of extras mean that this is a top notch set and is ideal for a newbie or someone with an active interest in the space program.

Not to be missed for those who were too young to remember the race to the Moon or for those who wish to recall the great memories.
