A fascinating Cold War documentary about one of the boldest intelligence operations ever pulled off. In 1959, the CIA managed to steal, disassemble, photograph, and return a Soviet Luna 2 probe—all in one night during a Soviet exhibition in Mexico City.

Using declassified files and expert interviews, this video dives into the operation’s impact on the U.S. space race efforts. No clickbait, just an incredible true story.
