'No Requiem for the Space Age' paints a portrait of a nation in the midst of questioning the very values that had guided it through the post-war years as it began to develop new conceptions of progress that had little to do with blasting ever more men to the moon. Here is a narrative of the 1960s and 1970s unlike any told before, with the story of Apollo as the story of America itself in a time of dramatic cultural change.
