On 20 July 1969 millions of people sat spellbound in front of televisions and radios for the launch of the Apollo 11 mission. With the radio message "Capcom go!" NASA's ground control confirmed that communications with the astronauts were good – thus giving the go-ahead for what was, until then, the most exciting journey in human history.
The show "Capcom Go!" focuses on the space race to the moon between the USA and the Soviet Union. Witness the huge effort involved in putting the first humans on the moon. Experience the flight to the moon on the huge Planetarium dome, supplemented by interactive live commentary. "Capcom go!" – start of the Apollo adventure!
Capcom Go! was developed by NSC Creative, National Space Centre, Exploration Drive, Leicester, United Kingdom.
