Description

Explores the background and the aftermath of the moon landing of 20 July 1969, using this single event to act as a window onto a broader perspective of twentieth century history. This work looks at the race for space, building up to actual lift off, then tantalizingly asks 'What if it hadn't happened?'

Reviews
