Digital Family Heirloom
My dad took pictures of the TV when Aldrin and Armstrong walked on the moon. All of our family pictures were preserved as slides, and there were a pile of them, so we never got around to finding them. They were buried in boxes for years.
My sister recently had all the pictures and super-8 movies scanned. I probably first heard about these pictures 30 or more years ago, but this is the first time I’ve gotten to see them. (I was a huge NASA nerd as a kid, so these would have been quite compelling then.)
