On July 20, 1969, fear and excitement swept the world as Kennedy Space Center's ground control anxiously waited to hear the outcome of NASA's Apollo 11 space mission. With confirmation that the eagle had landed, the United States officially did the impossible and became the first nation to put a man on the moon. Now, ONE GIANT LEAP highlights the remarkable story of our nation's journey to the moon, the landmark mission that inspired Americans during a time when violence and turmoil dominated headlines.
