During the first moon landing a large amount of video was transmitted to NASA. The pictures captured were taken by a specially designed TV camera using Slow Scan TV (SSTV) and were of high quality. These were the pictures shown on the NASA monitors, but, they were then rescanned and converted to a format capable of being transmitted to ordinary home TV. It was these lower resolution images which we saw and which are always shown on TV or in newspapers etc. As technology has advanced we are now capable of taking these original high definition images and further enhancing them as was expected. Unfortunately a little problem has occurred, all the original images have disappeared. Nearly 700 boxes of these images have vanished into the twilight zone or are sitting in someones house.
As the images were coming in and being displayed on NASA monitors someone took Polaroid photos of them and these are the only records of some of the images that have survived. The 6 videos below are a recording of an interview with Richard C. Hoagland on Coast To Coast AM and include images of the moon etc. talked about. Richard C. Hoagland is a former space science museum curator; a former NASA consultant, and during the historic Apollo Missions to the Moon, was science adviser to Walter Cronkite and CBS News. For over 20 years, Hoagland has been leading an outside scientific team in a critically acclaimed independent analysis of possible intelligently-designed artifacts on Mars. Richard and his team's investigations have been quietly extended to include over 30 years of previously hidden data from NASA, Soviet, and Pentagon missions to the Moon. Still images can be found here and on his site you will find much interesting information.
