The FREAKING Moon! It was amazing and utterly transfixing! I've been watching the videos from that era all day today, remembering with the same childlike glee and awe what we, as Americans, can do when we set our minds to it. I was such a total NASA geek back then. I would get up in the middle of the night if there was something happening with a space flight to watch on tv. I remember watching Cronkite mostly, but also Jules Bergman on ABC and Roy Neale on NBC.

The video still captivates me, what an amazing feat it was, and still is. I'd just like to meet the guy that erased the other footage...what would his name be ? Maybe oops. Joel,
