About
If you enjoy history told through real footage and broadcasts, this is a compelling time capsule with a strong first stretch; Not for you if you want evenly paced coverage of every mission or a more complete overview like Drain the Oceans.
Pros: immersive archival-only approach; strong early build-up; authentic time-capsule feel | Cons: later missions feel rushed; uneven pacing overall; ending feels tacked-on
