SYNOPSIS: The Parkes telescope – with its three Australian operatives Cliff Buxton (Sam Neill),Mitch (Kevin Harrington) and Glenn (Tom Long) – takes centre stage in the role oftransmitting the television pictures from Neil Armstrong’s landing on the moon. Thisis an incident not without mishap, but with the help of NASA’s man on the spot, AlBurnett (Patrick Warburton), and the local community, headed by the Mayor (Roy Billing),the big event is handled impeccably. And in true Australian style. Or should that read‘but’ in true Australian … er… style. True story. Mostly.
