'The Astronaut Wives Club': Space history vs. Hollywood in Ep. 4 'Liftoff' [i]"The Astronaut Wives Club" went from six orbits to splashdown in "Liftoff," the ten-part series' fourth episode, which launched Thursday night (July 9) on ABC. Set in September and October 1962, the episode included NASA's second-to-last Mercury mission – but only barely, as most of the drama focused on what was happening on the ground. "While the Cold War intensifies and Cuban Missile Crisis comes to a head, the Mercury 7 families begin glamorous new lives in Houston," ABC wrote in its official synopsis. "But Houston also marks the start of the Gemini Project, and with it, the arrival of the Gemini wives, which changes the dynamic among all the women."[/i]
