Synopsis
Never before has there been such a comprehensive and thorough series devoted to the history of space exploration. Featuring actual video and film footage from NASA's archives, the Spacecraft Films collection is a must-have for anyone interested in technology, science, and outer space. This release focuses on Project Gemini, the innovative program that found a way to extend missions, which laid the groundwork for the subsequent space walks that changed the world forever.

Customer Reviews

Outstanding
For 30 years I have been looking for a copy of the complete downloads from the Gemini space missions - now I have it!

I cannot praise this DVD set too highly - all the wonderful 16mm film shot in space, showing so much.

Great interviews!

A super buy for anyone interested in the history of spaceflight.

Superb
Spacecraft films are superb. Difficult to obtain footage put together in a fantastic package. This set contains a great documentary covering the Gemini missions from start to finish. As a starting point to the US space program you would be better off with a documentary such as the excellent In the Shadow of the Moon. If you want to get into things in more detail then this is the place to go.
