===== 1. Apollo 11 Telemetry Tapes and the 2009 Report - NASA’s “The Apollo 11 Telemetry Data Recordings: A Final Report” (July 2009) details the search for the original Apollo 11 slow-scan television data tapes. - This report concluded that the most sought-after tapes (showing the original, unconverted slow-scan feed of the Apollo 11 moonwalk) had been erased and reused in the 1970s. =====
# Other Apollo Missions’ Tapes - NASA has stated in various archival documents and public statements that telemetry tapes and data from missions other than Apollo 11 are stored in multiple NASA and National Archives facilities. - Although some tapes from other missions were also recycled or lost, those data losses were neither as publicized nor as substantial as the Apollo 11 videotapes.
# NASA’s Archival Practices - NASA routinely reused data storage media (such as magnetic tapes) during and after the Apollo program, which led to partial or total loss of some original footage and telemetry over time. - However, the specific “missing tapes” story usually refers to the Apollo 11 slow-scan TV data, not all of Apollo’s mission data.
