U.S.: NASA: We’re a bunch of freaking idiots who delete moon footage

  • They deleted the tape! Yeah, that one! NASA, we’re sure with the same look that you had when you busted up your dad’s Dodge when you took your ex-girlfriend on a romantic camping vacation, admitted to accidentally deleting over the most iconic tape in their entire collection, the one that turns 40 this month. You know, the moon mission. The one with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. Fortunately, they had some company, Lowry Digital, remaster the heck out of the footage to make it even better than the original. But still, idiots: Don’t delete tapes with important American history on them in a desire to save cash. source

    At least nobody taped over it with porn–that would be really embarrassing.
