    What was the Space Race really all about? In this episode of Who, When, Wow: Mystery Edition, Carly Q blasts off into one of history's most exciting competitions: the Space Race. From rockets roaring into orbit to astronauts taking humanity's very first steps on the Moon, Carly investigates the facts behind one of the greatest adventures in history.
