9 Days in July

July 24, 1969 / Red Planet or Bust!

Apollo 11 rides a fireball back through Earth’s atmosphere before splashing down in the Pacific Ocean.

Nine Days in July is a new podcast documentary series that explores each of the nine days of the Apollo 11 Mission, day by day, in nine 60-minute-long episodes. While telling the story of the mission to the moon as it occurs, we also spin back, and spin out, into stories about Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins, NASA, the Space Race, and the history of the world-at-large during those 9 Days in July.
