Been all the way from Germany to LA just to see Endeavour, being close to one of the most impressive machines ever built... Can I just say I stood there and was crying? 😢

24:29 how he explains it makes him sound like he's telling a legendary tale, and its so satisfying..

A fantastic documentary. The loss of lives are a tragedy that we cannot undo. We can only improve processes and technology. Failure is part of progression. RIP all those brave souls that sacrificed their lives in the name of science.

Great documentary. Thank you for producing this. From waking in the morning to switch on my tiny transistor radio and hear voices from the Moon - Oh Wow. That will never leave me.
So I have lived through most of the space exploration era and am grateful that I did so.

Thanks for a great video. I have to say that given the fact we can gain from this video alone, it seems the problem with NASA, was its senior management, at the time of both fatal missions. Watch the video, especially regarding the second event. I feel sorry for that engineer who blamed the foam strike; only to be told they think he's wrong.
Who the heck are they, to say that?
