This was the first of a weekly series - it appears there are three episodes. Thanks for the heads up on this one, as someone who has grown up with the space program having observed the original Sputnik (dates me doesn't it :-), it was fascinating to hear some of the background to the start of the space race. I am sure it will also be enlightening background for those who have only become involved more recently. Definitely recommended listening.
