The history of space flight is full of many firsts.
This set of two films explores two significant firsts - the first
U.S. space program to put a man into orbit and the first joint space
program between two super powers - the U.S. and the Soviets. The
total run time for the collection is 58 minutes.
The first film is "The World Was There." This film
explores the NASA Mercury era of space flight and profiles the seven
brave astronauts who risked their lives to successfully complete
these early, yet vital space missions.

shows a rare cooperation between the United States and the Soviet
Union at a time of intense distrust and rivalry. This film explores
this historic cooperative space mission in great detail.
