Lost and Found: the odyssey of Liberty Bell 7<\/p>\n

July 21 1961, America\u2019s second man in space, Gus Grissom splashes down in the Atlantic after a 15 minute flight into space. The mission over, he awaits helicopter recovery.
\nWithin minutes of splashdown, a malfunction will see Grissom fighting for his life and his spacecraft lost to the depths of the ocean.
\nLess than two hours after touching the darkness of space, Liberty Bell 7 lies locked in the darkness of the Atlantic, 3 miles deep, all but forgotten as the space programme moves forward.
\nThis programme examines the flight, the loss of the spacecraft, the unprecedented effort to raise and preserve the craft once called NASA\u2019s lost child and presents new theories for the loss of America\u2019s second manned spacecraft.<\/p>\n
