Plots(1)
It is a date that will be remembered for all time, 20th July 1969 - the day man first set foot upon the moon. That one shining moment was witnessed by a television audience of 600 million people across the globe. Remarkably, those immortal images came via a "dish" in outback Australia. It may have been one small step for man, but for a handful of Aussie scientists, it was a giant leap. And one that almost didn't happen. (Roadshow Entertainment)
