American moonshot

John F. Kennedy and the great space race

Examines the development of manned space flight in the United States after, in 1961, President John F. Kennedy anounced his goal of putting a man on the moon by the end of the decade; and discusses the development of NASA, and the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo projects that allowed astronauts to travel beyond Earth's orbit to the moon and return safely.
