Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon

Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon

Only twelve have walked on the moon. You're next.

Twelve men who belong to one of the world's most exclusive fraternities -- people who've walked on the surface of the moon -- are paid homage in this documentary. Using newsreel footage, rare NASA photographs, and digitally animated re-creations, Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon examines the Apollo missions between 1969 and 1972 which put astronauts on the moon.
