It is indeed a sad day, when you loose your own historic film capturing one of mankinds greatest acheivements. Why wasn't this film under say the
Smithonians care or something. Instead of floating around NASA storage rooms?
But just 37 years after Apollo 11, it is feared the magnetic tapes that recorded the first moon walk - beamed to the world via three tracking
stations, including Parkes's famous "Dish" - have gone missing at NASA's Goddard Space Centre in Maryland.
A desperate search has begun amid concerns the tapes will disintegrate to dust before they can be found.
It is not widely known that the Apollo 11 television broadcast from the moon was a high-quality transmission, far sharper than the blurry version
relayed instantly to the world on that July day in 1969.

Quite possibly those magnetic tapes got confused with someone's reels of Jimmi Hendrix and ended up in the trunk of an old 68 Buick or something.
Maybe this was like the predecessor of the guy who took home veterans info on his laptop only to get it stolen. Maybe, just maybe some white collar
geek took these tapes home to watch them on an old 3/4" Sony Umatic deck and someone broke in and stole his VTR way back in the 70's?
Needless to say, it is probably right where they left them, next to Kennedy's brain in a corner of the national archives.

If these were the clearest pictures they have of the moon landings, maybe they were "lost" on purpose so as to hide something?
Are NASA that stupid not to have copies of the clearest footage of one of the most significant events of our history?

What?!
They can digitally re-master Star Wars, but the historic 'high-quality' video recordings of Mankind's first walk on another planet have been
misplaced. . .
Yeah, right.

This is all bull.
The truth is that it is very much there. It is a huge conspiracy to tell the world that the tapes are missing or lost so that no one asks for access
to these.
They probably contain Top Secret footage which NASA doesn't want anyone to see.
So this is a convenient alibi. No tapes, no inconvenient questions.
Another friggin' dubious scheme hatched by Black orgs including NASA.

Another proof that they didn't land on the moon by themselves.They went in alien spaceships,thats how they got the damm moon rocks which make people
believe that the apollo astronauts went on the moon on saturn V.

Stolen. I don't have proof though. It will come out in the future.

What will these clowns do next.
I do not believe this is the same tape they are talking about. This looks to just be an audio tape and the article is some years old, from 2001.
This recent issue is an entirely different thing.

No links on thier website but Sky News are reporting this morning that NASA has lost the moon landing tapes, and are sorting through over 30 years of
archived material to find it. They seem to be reporting it as though it had just happened, not lost a week ago or more.
Tell me this is'nt yet another one?
What is going on up there?

I admit it's rather disturbing, though not in the way that I suspect a conspiracy. Just seems bs to me that NASA first throws away/loses the plans
for the Saturn V rocket, and then they mispalce a piece of historic footage. Come on people... get your heads on straight.
