More Apollo Anniversaries

I just found a great website, maintained by the BBC. They’ve compiled many of their recordings of TV coverage from the Apollo era in a Moon Landings Archive (http://www NULL.bbc NULL.co NULL.uk/archive/moonlandings/). Here you can watch the same news coverage that we, in the UK, saw at the time, as well as some more recent documentary shows.
Also we are coming up to a big anniversary. 14th April will mark 40 years since the accident that prevented Apollo 13 landing on the Moon. This is close to the date for Yuri’s Night (http://yurisnight NULL.net/) (12th April) and will likely be a focus for space enthusiasts around the world. Arbelos (http://www NULL.arbelos NULL.eu) hopes to perform a new song for Apollo 13 at the Dumfries Yuri’s Night party (http://www NULL.astronomers NULL.ukscientists NULL.com/) on 10th April.
