We’re celebrating the Apollo50th anniversary by reliving some of our fave out of this world moments in film and TV. 🚀
In 1961, President John F. Kennedy decreed that the U.S. had a singular goal “of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the Earth.” Before the end of the decade, he said, an American would set foot on Earth’s permanent natural satellite. Over the next eight years, the U.S. would get closer and closer until the Apollo 11 mission, which launched on July 16, 1969, became the first to land on the moon.
Now, as the moon landing turns 50, people are looking back on the monumental moment. While there are a number of news programs and specials -- from Smithsonian Channel’s-- that not only revisit the space program but look at the science and wonders of the lunar body orbiting Earth, ET has rounded up some of Hollywood’s best documentaries, scripted dramas and fictional, yet realistic accounts about NASA, the space race and what traveling to Mars, man’s next stop, might look like.
