The Lunar Module Familiarization Guide is a combination of several documents which include detailed diagrams of the interior of the final flight model of the Lunar Module, the instrumentation, a fold-out of the instrument panels, maps and plan views of the vehicle, diagrams of the main onboard systems and more. Comes with a DVD. The DVD consists of three completely uncut interviews with the crew of Apollo 11. These interviews were conducted while the crew were at NASA headquarters just days before departing for the moon. The audio and film of these interviews have never been combined together or aired uncut. The audio from these interviews was provided by the interviewer who had stored the tapes for 40 years. Apogee Books combined them with pristine first generation prints of the NASA footage shot the same day to create these unique historical documents. Now is your chance to see and hear the crew tell about their upcoming historic mission in their own words.

In 1919 the Gaumont Motion Picture Studio created the first movie to ever be based entirely on a famous science fiction novel. That movie was an adaptation of H.G. Wells The First Men in the Moon. Wells himself was on hand to oversee the costumes and sets.
A lost treasure of the silent era of film, the movie is now believed to be lost forever. In 2010 The British Film Institute named it one of the 75 "most desirable" missing films.
In 2013 noted writer/editor Robert Godwin uncovered a series of artifacts from the film's original release including a complete synopsis of the plot (different to Wells' book), newspaper reviews and most importantly a series of still images from the production. Enough material to make this fascinating mini-history of the world's first "true" science fiction film.

When Stanley Kubrick first met Arthur C. Clarke he said that he wanted his help to make the “proverbial good science fiction movie.” The implication of Kubrick’s comment was that no one had yet made one. Their collaboration culminated in 2001: A Space Odyssey; which in 1968 was the latest film in a multi-decade history of movies about space. Beginning in 1902 and continuing to the present day the allure of spaceflight has resulted in such massive cultural epics as Star Wars and Star Trek, as well as the latest box office block buster Gravity. However, despite over 30 years of advances in space flight and movie-making it is still 2001: A Space Odyssey which most fans, film makers and critics use as the yardstick against which all other space films are measured. In 2001: The Heritage and Legacy of the Space Odyssey authors Frederick I Ordway III and Robert Godwin take a trip through more than eleven decades of space films. This fascinating study shows just how far 2001: A Space Ody
