Tonight at 9PM EDT, the Discovery Channel will show the first of a three-part, six-hour space series called "When We Left Earth". The series will feature footage from NASA's first 50 years that has never been seen in high-def video before (it will air in standard-def too). View the trailer here.

Just watched the first two hours, covering X15, Mercury, and Gemini. Space was cool!!
Interviews with Flight Directors Chris Craft, Glynn Lunney, and Gene Kranz, along with astronauts Gene Cernan, Jim McDivitt, Jim Lovell, Frank Borman, Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong (!!) and more. Lots of interesting NASA film footage. Check it out!
