For All Mankind
The documentary provides a testament to NASA's Apollo program of the 1960s and '70s. The score by Brian Eno underscores the strangeness, wonder, and and beauty of the astronauts' experiences, experiences which they were privileged to have for a first time 'for all mankind.'

For All Mankind is about what makes these men all the same...and, to some extent what makes us all the same: our infinitesimal smallness in the humbling vastness of the universe. [Blu-ray]
