A COLLECTION OF SPACE FILMS AND DOCUMENTARIES

The following is a collection of space-related footage and documentaries available on YouTube that I have selected based on their significance and my personal insterests. In no case it means to be complete, and this list should be considered as permanently "under construction" as new material is being added to YouTube, and I manage to find. This list has been created for educational purposes and to rise awareness and interest on the space program and manned space exploration.

There are several YouTube channels of interest. I personally recommend the following: NASA, ESA, SpaceX, Apollo 11 - Apollo Flight Journal, The Vintage Space, Everyday Astronaut, Dan Beaumont Space Museum, Curious Droid, Lunarmodule5, and The Space Archive.
