| Race to the Moon – The Daring Adventure of Apollo 8 |
The Foundation recommends this PBS documentary about Apollo 8. The DVD has an additional 25 minutes of material, including a scene about the Apollo 8 crew being offered the first landing, and another about Jim Lovell erasing all of the navigation information during the flight home.
Los Angeles Times: "A splendid telling of an exciting tale, economical yet powerful...The film captures not only the sense of scientific adventure and political necessity that attended the mission but also its emotional, decidedly spiritual finishing note. It is also quite beautiful to behold – in sharp, vivid color that brings the past forcefully into the present."

A member of the International Institute of Space Law, Virgiliu has authored several acclaimed papers in the field of space law and policy, and has been interviewed by New Scientist, Space.com/MSNBC, The Space Show, La Tercera (Chile), Ta Nea (Greece), Geo Magazine (Germany) and several publications in his native Romania.

The Rocket Company by Patrick J. G. Stiennon, David M. Hoerr, Doug Birkholz (Illustrator), 6x9 paperback, 263 pages, published by AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics & Astronautics (July 15, 2005).
This book is promoted as a novel. It's much more than a novel – it really is a primer of "rocket science." I am a missile engineer with 27 years experience in the design and development of rockets and missiles. While most of my experience is with solid propellant missiles, I have a working knowledge of liquid rockets. Patrick tells it how it truly is. The book leads the reader through the classical trade-offs involved in designing a liquid-fueled payload-to-orbit rocket system. – Bob Dietz, courtesy Amazon.com
