"You'll just have to look it up yourself." Ah, no. That's not how it works. _You_ made the claim therefore it's up to _you_ to prove it. It's not up to me to prove you wrong. Makes sense, right? "It's well documented". Well OK, then it should be very easy for you to produce evidence right? Specifically, that Hasselblad negatives were destroyed. I'm aware that certain telemetry tapes were lost or recorded over. And, some film magazines were inadvertantly left on the lunar surface. Oops! But no way anybody threw out any negatives. They are all at Johnson Space Center in a vault, guaranteed. Also at the time of the Apollo 11 landings, the live video feed was received in Australia, and displayed on a television with a different scan rate than used in the US. The workaround was to simply point another video camera at the television screen running NTSC and broadcast that dim, grainy feed of a feed. That is what Americans watched live on their televisions in July 1969, if the original Kookubara (or wherever it was lol) tapes could be found it would be a huge improvement. There is a huge amount of digitized NASA footage - from the original16 mm films and they are outstanding, the clarity is astonishing. Back then we saw nothing like that, just an amorphous blob on our screen and barely identifiable features like craters or clouds. At the time live television broadcast via satellite was a pretty big deal, to have live TV coverage and briadcast from Space/Moon orbit must have really been something even if a bit crude.
