I think that is the big deal..........they were never transferred to other
media originally at Goddard. They were sent to the National Archives and
only rough CAM versions were available due to the technology
incompatibilities. There's plenty of the rough stuff around but the real
high quality versions are in extreme danger.

What's the big deal? They probably have transferred those images to other

You know, it makes one wonder how these people ever manage to get a
