Between 1969 and 1972, twelve people walked on the surface of the Moon. Twelve others flew over its barren and majestic surface. They were the sons of workers, farmers, soldiers and businessmen. They thought anything was possible—and they proved this to the entire world.

For 20 years, Lukas Viglietti, an airline pilot and captain, has been fascinated by the conquest of the astronauts who went to space during his childhood. He has recorded their testimonies and since becoming their friend and confidant, he now offers an exclusive and unprecedented insight into their adventures.

In APOLLO CONFIDENTIAL, adults and children alike experience the all-inspiring accounts of:

  • steely-eyed test pilots
  • sensitive painters and poets
  • hard-living bad boys
  • thoughtful, studious scientists

    The only thing they had in common was they all saw the view of the beautiful home planet from a quarter of a million miles away, an oasis of life compared to the stark and lifeless, alien moon. In APOLLO CONFIDENTIAL, Lukas Viglietti recounts what people from the history books—people such as Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin—were like in person.

  • Lukas Viglietti is an airline pilot and captain. He flies long haul flights for SWISS airlines which allows him to regularly meet and get close to many key participants in the Apollo program. In 2009, together with his wife, Bettina, he founded SWISSAPOLLO in order to organize events inspiring people with the testimonies of the Apollo Astronauts. He has written press articles and conducted interviews about Apollo astronauts in Europe. He is the initiator and co-producer of the show “Apollo 11- The Immersive Live Show”. Lukas currently resides in Switzerland.
