Missing, Lost, and Found Moon Images

The lost NASA tapes: Restoring lunar images after 40 years in the vault, Computerworld
Keith’s note: There are three projects outlined in this story – Lunar Orbiter, Apollo (NASA), and Apollo (someone else):
“The most visible of the archeologists is arguably Dennis Wingo, head of Skycorp Inc., a small aerospace engineering firm in Huntsville, Ala. He’s the driving force behind the Lunar Orbiter Image Recovery Project, operating out of a decommissioned McDonald’s (since dubbed McMoon’s) at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Mountain View, Calif. The project’s goal is to recover and enhance as many of the original lunar landing images as possible.”
“[Richard] Nafzger is currently preparing a report on the results of the search and cannot discuss them until NASA releases the report, the date of which is uncertain. “But since I am not running down the street waving a flag and shouting ‘Eureka!’ you can draw your own conclusions. The big picture is that there is an explanation for everything,” he says.”
“Meanwhile, in Las Vegas, Karen Person, head of the Renaissance Entertainment & Media Group, is not waiting for Nafzger’s results. She says she has acquired one of the original 2-in. NASA recordings of the broadcast video and is using it as the basis of a documentary titled July Moon, which she hopes to have in theaters for the 40th anniversary of the moon landing on July 20. The video has been transferred to MPEG-4 format and parts have been enhanced, she says.”
