Synopsis
Ten extraordinary women, all in their seventies, come to Arizona for a very special reunion. They are very different from one another, but all have one thing in common - each was married to an Apollo astronaut. These women were right at the heart of the most ambitious journey ever made, as America shot for the moon.
In exclusive interviews, they tell how it felt to watch their husband blast off into space and about the death, danger and divorce as many of their men struggled to come back to earth.
