Synopsis
The Discovery Channel's cutting-edge documentary miniseries When We Left Earth systematically (and chronologically) weaves the tale of the American Space Race, from the immediate post-WWII years into the early 20th century. The second episode of this series, "The NASA Missions: Friends and Rivals," moves ahead from the 1950s into the days of the Gemini program during the mid-1960s - a program designed to devise and implement new methods for advanced space travel. These missions also coincided with the arrival of a new generation of astronauts, required to test the methods necessary to ultimately land on the moon - and then return to Earth alive and unscathed. This episode includes footage of such iconic events as astronaut Ed White's spacewalk, and the premier orbits of Gemini 6 and 7.
