Made prior to the Apollo 11 lunar landing, “Apollo Lunar Mission Update” features shots of various Kennedy Space Center installations, the Saturn V rocket and footage shot during test flights. It also contains footage of the Moon taken by the Mariner and other lunar spacecraft, and animation. The film provides explanations for the preparation for the first moon landing, followed by animation sequences tracing the space flight, moon landing, and return to earth. Conspiracy nuts will enjoy the extremely fake-looking footage of a simulated visit to the lunar surface by astronauts wearing mock-up space suits.
