In the Shadow of the Moon Reviews: The Moon shot in summary 2009-10-23 - Very good historical look at Apollo. Information given that the public didn't know at the time.
Great introduction to the moon landings for the whole family 2009-10-13 - 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.
NASA Men on the Moon 2009-09-15 - 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.
In the Shadow of the Moon 2009-09-12 - 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.
Excellent Documentary 2009-09-07 - 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!
