Story

In the mid-21st century, the Apollo XI re-entry module splashes down with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on board, both claiming to have no knowledge of how they arrived in the future or why history records their successful return to Earth in 1969. Both men soon die from rapid aging and the US government begins an investigation into the mystery that leads to the discovery of a hidden space race dedicated to putting a human on Mars.
