To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Apollo moon landings on 20 July 1969, the Apollo 11 crew come together by chance. As one of the three, Michael Collins, later remarked the Apollo 11 crew were “amiable strangers”. Neil Armstrong, as commander, will fly the lunar module down to the surface of the Moon. The descent does not go smoothly. Armstrong spends about 15 minutes alone before Buzz Aldrin emerges to join him. But when they try to lift off to return to the command module, a circuit breaker connected to the ascent engine breaks.With everyone on tenterhooks (President Nixon has a speech prepared in case the mission goes fatally wrong), the astronauts manage to throw the switch by jamming the nib of a pen in it. Joyfully reunited – Collins even kisses them – the ‘a(chǎn)miable strangers' make the long journey home. The world has watched their mission in awe. Appreciating the story for the first time from the perspective of a TV audience, Buzz Aldrin remarks poignantly to Neil Armstrong, “We missed the whole thing”.阿波羅11號(hào)太空船於1969年7月實(shí)現(xiàn)了人類登上月球的夢(mèng)。當(dāng)年的太空船發(fā)射場(chǎng)吸引了超過(guò)一百萬(wàn)人群，全世界觀看發(fā)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)直播的觀眾人數(shù)達(dá)到了創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的六億。今年將會(huì)是人類第次登月四十周年，本以戲劇紀(jì)錄片形式，露這劃時(shí)代的創(chuàng)舉中為人知的內(nèi)幕，其中些秘辛幾乎足以毀破趟偉大任務(wù)。一枝筆然救了首次登上月球太空人的命！巖士唐太空人完成登月任務(wù)備返回地球時(shí)，發(fā)現(xiàn)月小艇啟動(dòng)電源的開(kāi)被他們意外弄斷了，法起飛。危急中，太人拿出一枝原子筆塞開(kāi)關(guān)的洞裡，才順利動(dòng)登月小艇，免除了場(chǎng)悲劇。此外，紀(jì)錄更披露，當(dāng)年美國(guó)急成為第一個(gè)登上月球國(guó)家，阿波羅11號(hào)在還沒(méi)完全準(zhǔn)備好的狀下就出發(fā)，當(dāng)年的美總統(tǒng)尼克遜甚至已經(jīng)備好宣佈哀悼三位太人壯烈犧牲的講稿；美國(guó)政府也事先下令NASA，萬(wàn)一任務(wù)失敗就即時(shí)切斷連線，乘黃世人親眼目睹太空人進(jìn)太空的場(chǎng)面?

The series' seventh season began airing September 23, 2008, on a new 10:00 pm (EST) Tuesday timeslot. Steven Weber joined the cast for the first five episodes of the season as Special Agent Clark Medina, Jack's temporary replacement as unit supervisor. The episodes focused as much on missing persons cases as on Medina's war against Jack, as he revealed that he had not only been sent to replace Jack but also to convince Jack to leave the bureau. Medina ultimately realizes that he cannot get Jack to resign, and uses him in a power play to get himself promoted; in return, he arranges for Jack to get his old position back. Following Jack's return to Unit Supervisor, he sets about trying to repair his relationship with Sam and takes custody of his elder daughter, Hanna. The series ends with Jack putting a permanent end to his and Sam's on-again-off-again relationship and reaching a point of reconciliation with Hanna; Sam and Brian decide to live together to raise their son; and with the team attending the wedding of Danny and Elena.S07E01 "Closure"S07E02 "22 x 42"S07E03 "Last Call"S07E04 "True/False"S07E05 "Rise and Fall"......
