Why Did We Go to the Moon?

The Flynn Bros. describe the motivations behind the United States going to the moon in 1969 and highlight two hidden figures that helped accomplish that goal. Later, they evaluate the astronauts on the mission and explore little known details about what they actually did while on their journey. Finally, John tests Jimmy with an Astronaut Aptitude Test to see if he’s fit for outer space travel.   Subscribe, comment, and leave a rating.
