Plot

10 spacecraft and 24 men (10 appear on camera in this documentary) have orbited, looped around or landed on the moon. As American heroes and members of the super elite most of these men have since shunned public interview. "In the Shadow of the Moon" is a rare and beautiful historical document of the combined Apollo missions, told by the astronauts themselves, with mind blowing NASA footage of the spacecraft, space, the lunar landscape and the view of planet Earth from outer space. Really worth a look.
