NASA Holds Press Conference At Newseum Tomorrow
It’s great to see that the Newseum will be hosting a press conference of historic significance. Here are the details of the Thursday, July 16th event:
NASA will hold a media briefing at 11 a.m. EDT on Thursday, July 16, at the Newseum in Washington to release greatly improved video imagery from the July 1969 live broadcast of the Apollo 11 moonwalk.
The release will feature 15 key moments from Neil Armstrong’s and Buzz Aldrin’s historic moonwalk using what is believed to be the best available broadcast-format copies of the lunar excursion, some of which had been locked away for nearly 40 years. The initial video released Thursday is part of a comprehensive Apollo 11 moonwalk restoration project expected to be completed by the fall.
The Newseum is located at 555 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W. The news conference will be broadcast live on NASA Television and streamed on the agency’s Internet homepage.
Participants in the briefing will be:
— Richard Nafzger, team lead and Goddard engineer
— Stan Lebar, former Westinghouse Electric program manager
— Mike Inchalik, president of Lowry Digital, Burbank, Calif.
