Cosmonauts: How Russia Won the Space Race

OBSAH

Documentary examining the Soviet Union's pioneering role in space exploration, which is often downplayed due to America's victory in the race for the moon. Combining rare footage and interviews, the programme profiles a selection of Russian cosmonauts - including Alexei Leonov, the man who performed the first spacewalk, who explains how he found himself trapped outside his spacecraft 500 miles above the Earth.
