We watched this one as well, when we were stuck in a space show rut. I like when they include interviews with the people who were a part of the events. It adds a great depth to the story telling. If you haven’t watched Mercury 13, also on Netflix, you may enjoy that too. It is the story of a group of women that got training for Mercury missions, but never got to be part of the program. It has interviews with those women throughout the show.
