About this product

Product Information

July 20, 1969, marked one of the climactic moments in our history'the day Apollo 11 landed on the moon. But it is only one piece of a magnificent story. "Mission Control, This Is Apollo," by the acclaimed Andrew Chaikin (author of "A Man on the Moon," basis of the HBO miniseries "From the Earth to the Moon"), recounts space history from the Mercury missions through Apollo 17 and beyond. It is illustrated with stunning full-color paintings by astronaut Alan Bean, who walked on the moon with Pete Conrad on Apollo 12 and has devoted his post-NASA life to creating art. Handsome, informative, and dramatic, this is no textbook'it is the tale of humankind's greatest adventure in the last frontier: space.
