Today NASA is playing mission audio in 40-year lag real time.

And if you go to their website, you're greeting by a splash of flash of the step off the lunar module onto the surface of the moon.

Plug in to the audio here. (Just now: "Eagle, Houston--- we got the good biomed on ya now Buzz.")







































No, they're not wax.
That's Buzz, Michael, Neil, and the old Johnson Space Center director,
yesterday at the Smithsonian.

I'm finding the whistley beep very exciting, with the voices and the static on either side of it.

Apollo during childhood: a big thing. Apollo if you weren't born yet, probably not much of a thing.

It was like the embodiment of progress, the triumph of the applied mind, the potential to move beyond hatred, racism, war, all of what was so horrid between and among people on Earth.

From my perspective as a nine-year-old, it was the coolest thing ever.

From my perspective as a 49-year-old, I'm not sure I've matured any.
