The Space Race was an exciting time and the 1950s to 1970s saw some of the biggest leaps in space technology and exploration.

This book explores the efforts made by both NASA and the Soviet Union to reach the Moon during this period and details some of the extraordinary missions and adventures that occurred, including the Apollo 11 and Apollo 13 missions.
