Apollo 11 Quarantine - TONIGHT 3/6, 8pm on CNN

Post by Ron Schmit »

Hey all:

I mentioned this film at Feb's monthly meeting. It is a postscript to the amazing Apollo 11 movie by Neon Films. Shot with the same "HD" film, it captures the crew's three week quarantine after returning from the Moon. Sadly, it didn't last very long in the theaters so now is your chance to see it.
Apollo 11: Quarantine
9pm ET/ 8pm CT / 6pm PT
Featuring pristine, never-before-seen footage from the National Archives and NASA, this documentary explores the 21-day quarantine of Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins in the summer of 1969. Long before millions around the globe isolated themselves to guard against a pandemic, they quarantined to protect others after returning from the Moon.
