I would have to say this is my favorite episode. The theme of exploring our own Solar System from the earliest viewers to sending out missions was so well crafted and yet simply told. It's a bit sad to think that the Russian dreamer/scientist could have been alive to see humans land on the moon, but his life was cut short by war. I admit to getting a bit misty eyed see the scientists watch their beloved rocked go to it's "death."
