Moon Shot: The Inside Story of America's Apollo Moon Landings

A revised edition of the New York Times bestselling classic: the epic story of the golden years of American space exploration, told by the men who rode the rockets

On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik I, and the space race was born. Desperate to beat the Russians into space, NASA put together a crew of the nationâ€™s most daring test pilots: the seven men who were to lead America to the moon. The first into space was Alan Shepard; the last was Deke Slayton, whose irregular heartbeat kept him grounded until 1975. They spent the 1960s at the forefront of NASAâ€™s effort to conquer space, and Moon Shot is their inside account of what many call the twentieth centuryâ€™s greatest featâ€”landing humans on another world.
Â
Collaborating with NBCâ€™s veteran space reporter Jay Barbree, Shepard and Slayton narrate in gripping detail the story of Americaâ€™s space exploration from the time of Shepardâ€™s first flight until he and eleven others had walked on the moon.
