DVD Reviews of In the Shadow of the Moon

DVD Review: The Moon shot in summary
Summary: 5 Stars

Very good historical look at Apollo. Information given that the public didn't know at the time.

DVD Review: Great introduction to the moon landings for the whole family
Summary: 5 Stars

My husband and I watched this and thought it was pretty good. When we showed it to our four year old, he thought it was great and it helped make so many abstract concepts real to him.

DVD Review: NASA Men on the Moon
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched this documentary on a flight from Orlando to Houston, while NASA was debating whether we should ever go back. I really enjoyed it and will watch it again at home on my HD TV, but they should have made this in Widescreen, not just Full Frame.

DVD Review: In the Shadow of the Moon
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great presentation with footage I had never seen before. A must for school libraries as well as families interested in space science.

DVD Review: Excellent Documentary
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is a must-have for NASA enthusiasts. The interviews with the astronauts and the support personnel give new insight into the enormity of President Kennedy's challenge and the incredible effort of many people to make the moon landing happen. The astronauts and support personnel are compelling, funny, and human. I would recommend this documentary to everyone. We own "In the Shadow of the Moon" and "When We Left Earth" which are two of the best investments we have ever made for our 10-year-old daughter. She watches one of these DVD's every day, and the whole family has watched all of them countless times!

Description of In the Shadow of the Moon

IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON is an intimate epic, which vividly communicates the daring and the danger, the pride and the passion, of this extraordinary era in American history. Between 1968 and 1972, the world watched in awe each time an American spacecraft voyaged to the Moon. Only 12 American men walked upon its surface and they remain the only human beings to have stood on another world. Now for the first, and very possibly the last, time, IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON combines archival material from the original NASA film footage, much of it never before seen, with interviews with the surviving astronauts, including Jim Lovell (Apollo 8 and 13), Dave Scott (Apollo 9 and 15), John Young (Apollo 10 and 16), Gene Cernan (Apollo 10 and 17), Mike Collins (Apollo 11), Buzz Aldrin (Apollo 11), Alan Bean (Apollo 12), Edgar Mitchell (Apollo 14), Charlie Duke (Apollo 16) and Harrison Schmitt (Apollo 17). The astronauts emerge as eloquent, witty, emotional and very human.
