Shaun brings us the history and current status of the search for the lost Apollo 11 moon landing tapes that have gone missing.
He prefaces his post with the totally apt comment:
"The stupidity suggested in this link - or outright complicity - beggars belief"
The story is so convoluted, that including excerpts here would really do it an injustice. Needless to say that it seems that just about everyone at NASA at the time that were responsible for maintaining the archives for this information, dropped the ball. Whats more, NASA is now mothballing the equipment that is used to decode the data tapes, making recovering the lost footage all but impossible even if found. - Unbelievable! Doubt my word? Click the article title for the complete story.
Thanks Shaun
