Their LCROSS mission will blast off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, carrying a missile that will blast a hole in the lunar surface at twice the speed of a bullet. The missile, a Centaur rocket, will be steered by a shepherding spacecraft that will guide it towards its target - a crater close to the Moon's south pole. Scientists expect the blast to be so powerful that a huge plume of debris will be ejected. The launch was scheduled for June 18, with impact about Oct. 8. The San Francisco Examiner suggests that the true target is an extraterrestrial colony on the moon. Was it actually launched? I dunno. (William Randolph Hearst lives!)*edit* On-schedule launch apparently reported by Fox News video.

Although it's about Mars, the movie "Capricorn One" is available for rental. That's actual footage of real actors in Hollywood or somewhere, preserved quite nicely.

Easy to tell, in the original there were no space aliens or explosions (well except for the Apollo 13 one).

NASA's Apollo 11 Partial Restoration HD Videos
The "...One Small Step" video is of Neil Armstrong climbing down the lunar module ladder to the lunar surface. The video compares existing footage with the partially restored video.
Looks like they have some restored. I think there was over 3 hrs of live coverage. I think CBS might have a taped copy of their broadcast.

"The Moon!" Moon landing tapes got erased, NASA admits Thu Jul 16, 2009 2:32pm EDT By Maggie Fox, Health and Science Editor Well, they have remade a lot of the other things from that era. Let's just hope they do better than McHale's Navy and Bewitched. The special effects are much better now too. This time we could have some explosions, and maybe a big chase scene.Have Ben Afflec and Matt Damon done anything together lately?
