This BBC series came out in 2005, I believe. Worth a watch.
Might not be a lot of surprises or new info for some of you, but I was never one to follow the space race very closely, so I enjoyed my first viewing of this last evening.
I knew the talking points, of course, for I followed the news. But I never dug into the background like some. And of course, as history all of the events grow in complexity and meaning.
The earliest event I can recall from memory is the Soviets sending the dogs into space, followed by the American chimp's harrowing journey.
The series is a docudrama, and well done I think. Enjoy it if you haven't already.
