Description:
The decade of 1969-1979 is seen as the time when lunar science emerged from the dark ages as a result of the geophysical and sample investigations made possible by the Apollo flights to the moon. After a brief summary of the Apollo missions and laboratory investigative techniques, the film treats the major epochs in lunar history uncovered by the investigations. Finally, the moon is depicted as having a practical role in the future of science and technology, as well as serving as the pattern for the future exploration of space.
