Series 1, Episode 1 - The Moon Landing
We follow the crew of Apollo 11 as they cruise to the moon. We're given a snapshot of an internet-savvy 1960s - astronauts are trolled, Action Chaps are sold, and America wins gold in the space race. A space-based David Bowie and a caterpillar's eating disorder are the trending topics of the day.
