CARNARVON AND APOLLO

This is the story of how high-tech met the outback and the 'can-do' spirit - how a little outback town in Australia helped put man on the Moon. Carnarvon in 1969 was a town with no television and only a manual telephone exchange, yet it was the home of the largest NASA Space Tracking Station outside mainland USA. This is the true story of a town, the people, the challenges, the missions, the tensions and the creativity that took Carnarvon to the forefront of the greatest technological achievement and television event of the 20th century.
