About this listen
Apollo is the behind-the-scenes story of an epic achievement. Based on exhaustive research that included many exclusive interviews, Apollo tells how America went from a standing start to a landing on the moon at a speed that now seems impossible. It describes the unprecedented engineering challenges that had to be overcome to create the mammoth Saturn V and the facilities to launch it. It takes you onto the gantries at Cape Canaveral and behind the consoles of Houston's Mission Control as it relives the tragedy of the fire on Apollo 1, the first descent to the lunar surface, and the rescue of Apollo 13.
A story of daring bordering on recklessness on the ground and life-and-death decisions made in seconds during the flights, Apollo captures the drama of humans leaving Earth for the first time.

awesome story and narration
I thoroughly enjoyed the other audio book written by the astronauts, but this one was even better, explaining the engineering and technical issues they faced and how they overcame them. it was quiet a long story, but kept me interested the whole way.

Great History on Apollo
Comprehensive yet meticulous historical coverage of the Apollo missions. Factual yet with surprisingly touching and emotional moments. One of Murray and Cox's best works, definitely a work of passion and love for space exploration.
