The title of the play is really atmospheric, in line with the fact that the United States has always put gold on its face, similar to the NBA world champion.
It started on June 26, 1969, with the familiar live broadcast of the moon landing, presidential speeches, and global sensational scenes, but this time it became a "personal small step" for the Soviet astronauts. Thus, the sci-fi genre of the play is announced. The Soviet Union's first successful landing on the moon forced the United States to step up the deployment of the space race, especially to vigorously develop manned spaceflight technology.
Different from other space themes, the play shows elite characters such as astronauts as ordinary people, with affection and love, confusion and troubles, and family disputes, just like a life soap opera. Just in this era, affirmative action, the Vietnam War, homosexual disputes, and presidential elections are also surging, which are also important social backgrounds for the story to advance in the play. Each episode features popular music from that year, and the president's replays are so harmonious that one can't help laughing. The only difference from reality is that water was discovered on the moon, and the subsequent process was very different from the real world.
At the end of the first season, the United States and the Soviet Union have just begun to consider establishing a space base on the moon.
