Good documentary, although some space nerds may find it a bit boring as it doesn't reveal anything new.

Like that they gave Lunney some recognition. Most people only know Kranz and forget that Luney was the Flight Director during some of the most critical moments of Apollo 13.

Would love to hear about the reactions of SpaceX mission control personnel. With manned missions coming up, Sh*t is About to Get Real for them.
