PBS‘ American Experience has greenlit a new four-hour docu-series “Chasing the Moon,” which tracks the space race from its earliest beginnings to the first lunar landing in 1969 and beyond.
The series will feature previously overlooked and never-before-seen footage, as well as a cast of characters who were pivotal in these historic events, including astronaut Buzz Aldrin and Air Force Officer Bill Anders. Executive produced by Mark Samels and produced and directed by Robert Stone, “Chasing the Moon” will premiere on PBS in 2019 during the 50th anniversary year of the Apollo 11 moon landing.
