Mission to the Moon – News from 1969 is a 5 x 10mins series that celebrates the 40th anniversary of the moon landing, with each programme taking the form of a news bulletin to report each day’s momentous events with a modern twist. The majority of each programme will be a ‘news report’ about a day of the mission, mixing ITN’s archive material plus contemporary interviews and graphics with the best of NASA’s pictures.

Former ITN presenter John Suchet will front the series, with Peter Snow, who was an ITN correspondent at the time of the moon landing, on hand to look at the technology behind the mission.

In addition, Julie Etchingham will present ITV News at Ten from Cape Canaveral on July 20th and 21st to mark the anniversary of the moon landing. She will be interviewing key personnel involved in the mission, reporting how America is marking the anniversary and asking experts whether man will walk on the moon again.

Should be good!

A bit strange to think that by the time people go to the Moon again 50-60 years will have passed from the first one.
