Its funny how on the one hand he is mad at the exposure and wanting flicker and youtube to remove stuff, then at the same time he is posting all the info himself including personal contact info...

I am doing a project at NASA Ames to resurrect two of them to digitize NASA's original master tapes from the lunar orbiter missions to the Moon.

Z knows I was kiddin', or being sarcastic. But thanks anyway, for noticing.
LUNAR ORBITER IMAGE RECOVERY
A cooperative project between NASA Ames, UAH, and Skycorp to refurbish Ampex FR-900 tape drives to digitize original Lunar Orbiter data.
These data exists in lower resolution form at USGS but in 40 years the original high resolution data has not been downloaded.
The LO Recovery effort will begin this summer. Original analog data tapes archived by GSFC/JPL have been transferred to Ames.
Tape drives preserved by a foresighted retiree have been transferred to Ames as well

So was the title of this thread a blatant lie or misleading title? I'm still trying to find your information about how you verified these were the missing orbiter tapes.
They have never been seen by the public because at the time, they were classified as they reveal the extreme precision of our spy satellites. Instead, all we have ever seen are the grainy photo-of-a-photo images that were released to the public.

I guess it depends on how you want to define missing.

Don't know the date of the document.

So ONE definition of 'missing" would be not having access to them
But thanks for proving our point that the high res images were NOT available
In any case.. the end result, considering who is involved in this 'project' is that they are only interested in making their toy work and I doubt the care a hill of beans about the actual data... And I also doubt any of us will ever see it
