is now airing in my local market. It was on last night also. There is more information about our moon and the moons of other planets. I found it informing. The lunar space station is set for 2018.
MOON
Throughout history, Earth's moon has been worshiped, feared and keenly watched. THE MOON is a comprehensive documentary that charts man's scientific progress in understanding its history as well as the myths regarding our nearest neighbor in space. Including interviews with a variety of experts, archival footage, animation and photography from the Apollo missions, NASA and the European Space Agency, THE MOON is the definitive account of man's relationship with the moon. From Galileo's first "close up" view of the moon to our present knowledge based on research from moon landings and the revelations of unmanned orbiters, the orb in our night sky has been an object of both mystery and fascination.
edit: I learned the moon is slowly receding. Eventually full solar eclipses will never be viewable from Earth again.
