THE APOLLO PROGRAM The Story of Every Mission

This audiobook, created by Seeker, a top science contributor to YouTube and other digital platforms, introduces a new series of short-form audios. Here is the story of the U.S. space program from its origins after WWII to its lunar successes in the 1960s and early 1970s. The music is dramatic, the sound effects stirring, and its accounts of epoch-making moments elevating. The voices of astronauts and Mission Control give it a feeling of authenticity. Narrators Maren Hunsberger and Matt Morales trade off chapters and do good work describing the massive undertaking: The space program employed 400,000 at its peak, cost billions, and gave global status to American science. This modest audiobook is a timely reminder of U.S. ingenuity. A.D.M. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2021]
