With the Artemis program set to send humans back to the Moon in the 2020s, what can we learn from America’s first journeys to another world, half a century ago? Can manifest destiny be separated from the drive to explore and discover? In Moon Show, playwright/pilot Ben Moniz explores the parallel histories of the Apollo Moon landings and the Vietnam War via the Educational TV that got him hooked on space.
