Very emotional and just really exciting to experience what the civilian crew went through to get here.

Well made and with excellent interviews.

I'm a SpaceX fanboy, so I'm usually geeking out on technical side, but this series is really inspirational and I think it brings the space excitement to the masses. It's a well done series without getting too technical. (I'll get my nerdy fix from The Everyday Astronaut on YouTube). Worth a watch.

Interesting background stories of the 3 everyday folks and their billionaire benefactor taking them all to space.

Not much in it for the hard science space fans, but if you like stories about everyday people taking on grand adventures this is pretty good.

Not sure why people are complaining about SpaceX advertising itself. It's a for-profit company, of course they are going to advertise the heck out of themselves to drum up business. Good on them, I hope they get more business and are able to send even more people into space and get the funding to get us to Mars in my lifetime. I watched the moon landings when I was seven and it sucks that we've done bupkis since. None of the other alternative organizations are making the progress SpaceX is at present.

I find this mission truly inspirational and I think that the bad reviews are based on a misunderstanding. If you think that everything is about money and clout, what does that say about your worldview and your values?

JARED I gotta say, I was impressed by the guy. He's rich and he still strives for excellence in areas that doesn't directly benefit him, at least not financially. I admire that. He's a good pilot and no matter how rich you are, you can't buy that, it's plain hard work. I think that anyone who is testing his limits and puts in real effort in an area can recognize that in Jared.

There are a lot of athletes, for example, who do races or attempt records while doing fundraisers. Is everyone doing it for clout or are they not rich enough to qualify? 'Cause people here seem to dismiss the money Jared has raised/is raising. People seem to forget that money and fame don't make you happy, but having meaning in your life does. So, you can be a cynic and say he is doing it for clout or simply understand that meaning comes from doing something bigger than yourself, something that benefits others too.

His suggestion about going higher than the ISS if possible made sense. Props to Jeff Bezos, but that was underwhelming. To be inspiring, you need to test the limits.

The guy financed the mission himself. Those were his seats. He chose to do something meaningful and spend a ton of money.

SPACEX It made humanity excited about going to space again. It's the frontier of innovation and creativity, it's profitable, effective and gets stuff done. That's priceless. Sure, you can see the Moon landing too as a big PR campaign for USA, but it was so much more. This documentary is so much more. Sure, it looks like a bit cheesy and old SF movie, EXCEPT that it's real. We are starting catching up with the fiction.

THE CREW These are real people with great stories given an amazing opportunity. I've read the accusation of them being used by SpaceX to be discarded afterwards. Again, this is a very cynical view. Firstly, it's their choice. Secondly, what about soldiers and volunteers? What motivates them? I doubt it's money.

Is SpaceX taking advantage of them? I don't see how. It was Jared's mission anyway. They get the opportunity of a lifetime. I would say that that's priceless. Not everything is about money, guys. It's meaning that makes your life worth living.

All in all, it's a documentary worth seeing if you are not full of resentment or think that billionaires are by definition bad people that steal money.

It's great to see Netflix getting behind this. Elon and SpaceX make millions of people look forward to a brighter future. 💕

I am a19 yo, and for the past 6 years, I have been lucky to explore what Nasa and Spacex are. As someone from East- Jerusalem, I would never be able to do so if it was not for the internet. Even if it has been just through my laptop screen, my view of the world has been absolutely shifting and the feeling of accomplishment that I got to be shared with, gave me so much inspiration and hope! And it just keeps doing so. I personally believe, and I definitely see it happening, we humans are evolving for the better and we are able to influence each other as individuals way better than ever. And people like Elon Musk Jared Isaceman, Sian, Hayley , Christopher and all of the people behind the making of the Inspiration4 team, are thee great proof of that!

I can not describe my happiness watching the inspiration4 mission. And can not wait to see more of such great things happening & to be shared with the world. I can not recommend watching this documentary highly enough, because it delivers a great messages and very inspiring stories which are worthwhile watching every second of it.

Explores the journey that is leading to this historic mission. Quite connected with the people aspect of space and emotions.

But as a nerd, I'm a bit disappointed on the lack of technical details.

Very Inspiring Documentary that will spark intrest for Space Travel and Exploration.

This show about the 4 civilians going into space is good. It would have been better as a 90 minute movie. Way too long talking about family details etc. It's like they built this space mission documentary into a Hallmark movie.

I saw the launch live from my front yard. I watched the landing online. But watching this documentary literally had me on the edge of my seat. I loved everything about it. Way to go team!

Emotionally giddy is somewhat an understatement. I like that we are here now.

Such a great docu series. I'm truly excited for this crew and hope them the best.

One of the most inspiring enjoyable TV miniseries I've ever watched. Good people doing good things for the right reasons. Bravo!!!

This is probably one of the next documentaries I have ever seen. Seeing all of their reaction and their stories literally made me cry... Can't wait for the rest of the episodes.

Very inspiring, thrilling and an amazing series which is a must see if all, especially kids. Ignore all the cynics and watch it for fun and the story but not the technical elements.

Real, incredible exciting stories of real people involved in the mission. Well narrated and documented sequence of events. Fingers crossed for a successful mission!

For a supposed documentary it's very light on information. If you're interested in space travel, there will be very little in here that you don't already know.

The usefulness of the mission is never stated, and the documentary makes it seem like nothing more than a marketing campaign for space tourism.

Worth watching documentary. The soundtrack is out of this world.

Really great docu series covering this historical event, it's truly a great milestone for all humankind, sending 4 civilians to space while raising funds to help on research for cure to cancer.

Absolutely inspiring!!!

Full of emotion and thrilling to watch. We could all relate to the story of 4 civilians who will be part of the history books forever.

To the bitter reviews, grow up! It's an incredible story what Musk did for the crew. The negative comments because he's the richest man on earth and is serious about Space exploration. Yet we have Branson and Bezos sending rich people up for a view. Musk had opened the door to the average Joe who don't get these opportunities.

It's a fantastic documentary, just watch it and enjoy without being over dramatic that Musk funded it.

I saw this countdown twice till today. I loved it. I think that the four people selected for it were fantastically chosen.

And they represented what they aught.

Also music 🎶 in this series was the best choice.

I would have like to be there, inside, making photos of all the experience and the world being stared from there.
