This is one of the best pieces of TV to have ever been created.
The series take you through an alternative reality where the Russians won the space race to the moon, but the race continued with the exploration of the moon and beyond... The race never stopped!
This story is equally driven by the beautifully flawed characters (with whom you experience the heights of triumph and the lowest lows of tragedy) and also but the main plot of the story, that of the struggles of the human race to explore and conquer space; and the balance of the two is masterful. What this show has done uniquely though, is made the audience feel the absolute wonder and majesty that I imagine the people watching the first human walking on the moon once felt. It's mesmerising and spell binding and is the best piece of television I have ever seen. What an emotional rollercoaster!
Enough said, go watch it! Honestly....
