Apollo Program: Tragedy and Triumph is a deep dive into NASA's journey to the Moon, weaving together the highs and lows of the Apollo missions.

The pacing is quite contemplative, balancing harrowing moments like the Apollo 1 fire with the sheer exhilaration of Apollo 11's success. The archival footage is striking, and the atmosphere feels genuinely tense at times, especially when revisiting the risks involved.
