Made in 1979, at the request of NASA, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the historic 1969 moon landing, Tony Palmer's breathtaking documentary features never-before-seen footage of the lunar landscape, life aboard the Space Shuttle, Mars, Venus and beyond, as well as the extraordinary recordings of conversations between the astronauts and ground control in Houston. The film's soundtrack was written, arranged and performed by Mike Oldfield, using extracts from his ground-breaking symphonic tone poems. These included 'Tubular Bells' and 'Hergest Ridge' and previously unreleased orchestral versions, wound in and out of the NASA soundtracks.
