It is I, Denspressure

After sloshing around in third-grade conspiracy forums like apollohoax, IFERS, FOK! and flatearthsociety I decided to break new grounds be entertaining the paragon of conspiracy forums:

ATS

Mostly interested in space-flight and the conspiracies behind them, over the last few years I have been collecting rare and obscene items. Each item has a grand story behind it, explaining how I acquired and digitized it (The latter of which is not always straight forward.) The digitizing and processing of some items is still going on. Once I gained the power to create threads I will be able to elaborate on each set of items.

To spread the hype, below is a preview of several items. All data of which will later be provided in high-resolution:

NASA computer tape from Apollo 16 in tape drive:


3 of the 6 images decoded from a Pioneer 11 tape:


Amateur photos of Apollo 15 or 16 liftoff:


Photo and then scan of Apollo 14 print, not online by NASA in high-resolution:


FullHD scan made with the help of OneBigMonkey:


A "few" audio recordings of the Apollo 11 TV broadcast:



And of course I have tons of information to add to several threads, I have seen a few already where I want to add my two cents.
Let me know what you think of the memorabilia provided so far! I've got some great things coming up.


Kind regards,
Niels

Cool welcome, looking forward to some fresh material on space

Made a mental note to myself to keep watching for your posts, seems you bring interesting stuff to ATS

(Note: 'Block' is the formatting structure of the digitization program, not part of the actual tape data.)

3 of the total 6 images on the Pioneer 11 tape are duo-colour red/blue images. We are not sure how to process the two colour channels, so gave it our best shot!

One of several combination variations:

Looking forward to the obscene items.

We got several drives, one of which has a vacuum feed mechanism like the one above.

Our main drive is a HP 7970B, a similar model is seen below:
