One Giant Leap is the sweeping, definitive behind-the-scenes account of the furious race to complete one of mankind's greatest achievements. It's a story filled with surprises--from the item the astronauts almost forgot to take with them (the American flag), to the extraordinary impact Apollo would have back on Earth, and on the way we live today.

Recreates the experiences of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin as they approach, land, and walk on the Moon, plant the American flag, collect rocks, take pictures, and finally lift off, reconnecting with their space ship, the Columbia.
