520 |a This is the emotional story, told for the first time, of two men, on opposite sides of the Cold War, racing against each other to design and build the most powerful rocket and dominate the world. An extraordinary co-production from the makers of Seven Wonders of the Industrial World, this fast-paced, action-packed factual drama unmasks the true heroes and villains behind one of the most extraordinary times the world has ever known. At the heart of this multi-million dollar battle for the moon lie incredible tales of betrayal, rivalry and soaring ambition, fuelled by the ruthless competition between two recklessly daring scientific leaders: the charismatic ex-Nazi Wernher von Braun in the American team, and the enigmatic Soviet project leader, known mysteriously as 'The Chief Designer'. Each despised the ideology of the opposition and was prepared to stop at nothing in pursuit of the ultimate prize.
