Disney is starting to remove content from its streaming service as part of a cost-cutting measure and, as of today, "The Real Right Stuff" is among the titles slated to be pulled.

Just a heads-up if you have been meaning to watch but haven't yet.

It was worth watching, especially if you are not well versed on the history (which is the type of person National Geographic was targeting when they set out to have it made). Still, even being familiar with the topic, it kept me engaged.
