The original film of the Apollo 11 moon landing is recorded on reels of specially formatted magnetic tape like this one. There is only one working machine at the Goddard Space Flight Center that can still read the magnetic tape.
These images were distributed to NASA employees in 2006 to help them identify any boxes of Apollo-era tapes they might come across. Goddard believes the missing tapes may still be somewhere at Goddard or sent off to other facilities for storage or research.
Well Apollo cost us 20 billion so thats about 1.5 million per tape. Sounds about right, and this from the government that wants to manage healthcare. It was all for show anyway the United States manned space program is a joke. China and India will know what to do with the knowledge they gain.
Soldiers who manage to walk away from explosions in Iraq may actually be suffering terrible—yet invisible—brain trauma. Could blast waves be fueling a new breed of injury?
