Mission Control: The Unsung Heroes of Apollo:

At the heart of the Apollo space program was the team who worked in Mission Control. Some came from a rural lifestyle unchanged since the 19th century. Others grew up in a blue-collar America of mines and smoke stacks.

They ranged from students straight out of college, to soldiers hardened by military service. Yet, from such ordinary beginnings, an extraordinary team was born. They set out on what JFK called “the most hazardous, dangerous, and greatest adventure upon which mankind has ever embarked.”

Through the team’s testimony and the supporting voices of Apollo astronauts and modern NASA flight directors, the movie explores their journey from the faltering start of the program to the glories of the Moon landings, and the rescue of Apollo 13.

Competition dates: on air weekdays 19/03/2018 to 23/03/2018.

Please note winners will need to collect their prize from the River 94.9 office in North Ipswich.
