In 1961 President John F. Kennedy challenged the United States to
land a man on the moon and return him safely to Earth before the
end of the decade. It seemed like an impossible mission and one
that the Russians--who had launched the first satellite and put the
first man into Earth orbit--would surely achieve before the
Americans. However, the ingenuity, passion, and sacrifice of
thousands of ordinary people from all walks of life enabled the
space program to meet this extraordinary goal. This is the story of
fourteen of those men and women who worked behind the scenes,
without fanfare or recognition, to make the Apollo missions
successful.
