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號太空船於1969年7月實(shí)現(xiàn)了人類登上球的夢想。年的太空船射現(xiàn)場吸引超過一百萬人群，全世觀看發(fā)射現(xiàn)直播的觀眾數(shù)也達(dá)到了紀(jì)錄的六億。今年將會人類第一次月四十周年本片以戲劇錄片形式，露這劃時(shí)代創(chuàng)舉中不為知的內(nèi)幕，中有些秘辛乎足以毀破趟偉大任務(wù)一枝筆竟然了首次登上球的太空人命！巖士唐太空人完成月任務(wù)準(zhǔn)備回地球時(shí)，現(xiàn)登月小艇動電源的開被他們意外斷了，無法飛。危急中太空人拿出枝原子筆塞開關(guān)的洞裡才順利啟動月小艇，免了一場悲劇此外，紀(jì)錄更披露，當(dāng)美國急欲成第一個(gè)登上球的國家，波羅11號在還沒完全準(zhǔn)好的狀態(tài)下出發(fā)，當(dāng)年美國總統(tǒng)尼遜甚至已經(jīng)備好宣佈哀三位太空人烈犧牲的講；而美國政也事先下令NASA，萬一任務(wù)失敗就時(shí)切斷連線以免世人親目睹太空人進(jìn)太空的場?
