“When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions” Now Available on DVD & Blu-ray

Experience the DVD event of a lifetime as “When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions” debuts in stores everywhere on DVD and Blu-rayâ„¢ High-Def September 30 from Image Entertainment. Having recently premiered on television to rave reviews, “When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions” has quickly become this summer’s Planet Earth. Narrated by award-winning actor Gary Sinise (Apollo 13, Mission to Mars, Forrest Gump, TV’s CSI: NY), this remarkable special edition, 4-disc collectible set features almost four hours of unbelievable content not seen in the television broadcast, a rare, exclusive interview with the first-man-on-the-moon, Neil Armstrong, as well as a 14-page collectible booklet featuring a timeline of major revolutionary NASA events, trivia and archival photos. Packaged in a spectacular, limited-edition embossed metal collectible box.

Since the dawn of mankind we have stared up at the stars and wondered about the unknown. Now, join the heroic men and women who have dared to do the impossible on some of the greatest adventures ever undertaken – the quest to reach out beyond Earth and into the great mystery of space.

To celebrate 50 years of amazing achievements, the Discovery Channel and NASA partnered together to reveal the heroic struggles, triumphs and tragedies in a bold chapter of human history. Priceless footage was transferred from NASA’s own secret film vaults, finally making these unprecedented treasures available for the masses. Along with candid interviews of the people who made it all happen, hundreds of hours of never-before-seen film footage from the NASA archives, including sequences on board the actual spacecraft in flight, have been carefully restored, edited and compiled for this one-of-a-kind, truly epic collection.
