Tapes containing the original, high-quality transmission of the Apollo 11 moon landing were wiped after being quietly shelved in an unmarked storage area by NASA.
While other recordings of the historic 1969 mission survived, the revelation that at least some moon landing video disappeared has fueled wild conspiracies that NASA has been covering up what astronauts saw or even that the whole mission was faked.
Now, the truth about these 'erased' tapes has been revealed by Tim Dodd, better known as the 'Everyday Astronaut' on YouTube, who said the lost footage was only a set of backup magnetic tapes containing the raw transmission from space.
Dodd explained that the backup tapes were considered by NASA to be less critical since all the essential data, video, and radio signals were successfully transmitted to Houston and broadcast live on TV.
The backup copies of Apollo 11's historic mission were mistakenly taped over when NASA reused older magnetic tapes due to a shortage of those specific film reels in the 1970s and 1980s.
Speaking on the Danny Jones Podcast, Dodd said no one at the time anticipated future technology would be able to upscale or enhance the resolution (upres) of the raw footage for better quality, which is now possible today.
However, NASA still possesses thousands of hours of data proving the first moon landing really took place, including lower-quality versions of telemetry data, audio, and video from Houston's recordings.
Dodd added that the space agency also still has shockingly clear 70 millimeter film from the cameras the Apollo astronauts used on the moon, a grade of film that is still used in IMAX movies 57 years later.

Terrific coverage!!
Which recourse to false analogy, analogical fallacy, of superficial comparisons between two things that are not sufficiently similar only impugns your own credibility. Your reasoning is that since governments can and so lie then some examples or possible examples of which means that another and far, far, far more extensive one is false, ignoring the extensive evidential differences.
As said, you have a LOT of faith. Mine is not in government (indeed), but in the collective scope of evidence, and the arguments of the MLD have been tried and refuted. Why such insist in their denials is an issue.
You are very patient with these denying idiots.
So many people view that as some impenetrable wall; but, it just isn't. First, the Van Allen belts fit the planet as a torrid, a doughnut if you please. Second, the intensity of those things were mapped by Earth satellites long before Apollo flew. Third, harm from radiation results from the combined affect of intensity, time exposure, and shielding.
Knowing all of this in advance, they designed a spacecraft of 3/8" thick aircraft aluminum with a 1/8" ceramic overlay. (Shielding) Apollo was launched at 75 degrees relative to the equator so as to exit the Earth vicinity via the doughnut hole, then turn toward the moon to pass only through the weak outer fringes of the belts. (Intensity) They passed through that fringe in about 20 minutes, I seem to recall. (Time Exposure).
Being forewarned did allow for appropriate preparations and planning. It seems most people think the Van Allen Belts were some kind of surprise.
Faking a lunar landing AND GETTING AWAY WITH IT would be harder than actually going to the moon. It would be a conspiracy that would involve hundreds of thousands of government and private contractors. None of whom have talked in 50 years.
I am rather pleased with you gruffness this time around. ;-D Go get 'em.
That won't last much longer. ;-D
Well said.
It’s hard to believe these mouth breathing knuckle dragging lunar landing deniers are wasting our oxygen.
Gosh…you hurt my feelings. I’m disappointed. Though not as disappointed as when I found out the moon landings were filmed in a studio.
That is my impression as well.

It is similar to visiting the zoo, something to do.
I hope you didn’t breed.
Tell me this you freaking loon. How does one simulate 1/6 gravity in a studio? You’re so dumb it makes my skin crawl. Talking to you is like talking to a mentally impaired child trying to convince them eating their own poo is bad for them. We are on that level.
LOL! 9 children. All successful engineers, entrepreneurs, and doctors
You have a potty mouth. Your mother should wash your mouth out with soap
Ok, you don’t believe any of the crap you are posting. Just trolling. Why are you doing this?
Your father should have used protection.
