PART 1:
CAN WE DO THIS?
On April 12, 1961, Russia launched the first man into space leaving a stunned American Space Program in limbo. A call to arms by President John F. Kennedy revitalizes the sleeping giant and the nation is united by one aim: to be the first to land a man on the moon before the decade’s end. The Mercury Program is launched on May 5th, 1961 when Freedom 7 takes Alan B. Shepard, Jr. for a 15 minute, 22 second flight into outer space. But there’s a lot to be learned in a short time before man can actually go the distance. Astronauts like Jim Lovell, Buzz Aldrin, Ed White, Neil Armstrong and more will have to risk their lives before the first Apollo can reach for the skies.

PART 2:
APOLLO 1
January 27, 1967. In preparation for the flight of Apollo 1, astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee undergo a routine “plugs-out” test in their space capsule. But their routine test turns to disaster when a small electrical fire explodes into a raging inferno, taking the lives of the three men before their ship can even leave the ground. A nation mourns, but a watchful Senate Committee – anxious over the extreme haste and massive expenditure involved in fulfilling the late President Kennedy’s dream – may pull their own plug from the entire Apollo project.
