At the dawn of the Space Race, seven test pilots set out to become the first American astronauts to enter space. However, the road to making history brings momentous challenges.
Test pilots transition from adrenaline-fueled daredevils to calculated icons as the Space Race turns their lethal cockpit maneuvers into a national spectacle. This sprawling epic captures the frantic collision between individual bravery and the cold machinery of government bureaucracy.
