James Burke and John Parry report from inside an Apollo space capsule simulator at the NASA space research centre in California. Every effort has been made to ensure these simulated flights are as authentic as possible, so that astronauts Michael Collins, Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong are prepared for every eventuality.
A bespoke camera system is trained on a large model of the Earth, to give the illusion of the capsule orbiting high above the surface, while another camera and model setup accurately recreates the positions of some 1353 stars.
An artist's impression of the moon is used to create the moonscape, which is used for simulating the - until now - top secret 'Moon Scooters'.
