Synopsis

This is the definitive story of the Apollo 15 mission. Taken directly from the NASA archive, this exhaustive account will be a must own for any space enthusiast.

In July and early August of 1971, NASA embarked on an ambitious and challenging lunar mission - the journey of Apollo 15 to the Hadley-Apennine region. The first of the “J” lunar missions, Apollo 15 took the first Lunar Rover to the surface, allowing the crew to explore the beautiful region of Mt. Hadley and Hadley Rille over 3 days. New science was conducted in orbit aswell, with the addition of an array of photographic and scientific instruments in the Apollo CSM.

This 6-disc set tells the amazing story of Apollo 15 through compelling sounds and images of the film and television record of the mission. From training on the Lunar Rover to the first live liftoff from moon, you’ll be there for each moment of the TV downlink and each foot of onboard motion picture film.

Included are the raw television transmissions from the flight to the moon, all three moonwalks, plus the lunar liftoff, Trans-Earth EVA, in-flight press conference and more.

This set also contains multi-angle views of liftoff and coverage of recovery through the statements of the crew on the carrier deck. You’ll discover Hadley Rille as you’ve never seen it before!
