Moon landing completely staged! :)

Few nerds at ThamTech, with a little help from others at Wildflower Interactive published this interactive re-enactment (?) of the Apollo 11 Lunar Landing:

Looking at the data and the audio, it is very easy to see that the lunar landing was completely staged. Jokes aside, this page is great; I mean great. You can't get any closer to that moment in history than this. Make sure you let kids around you know about this!

By the way, we are obviously very late to the game; this page won an Webby Award in 2013.

Apollo 11 Code

You probably need to be an uber nerd to think this is cool, but here it is: "Original Apollo 11 guidance computer (AGC) source code, in assembly, for Command Module (Comanche054) and Lunar Module (Luminary099)", uploaded by Chris L Garry, an intern, to github.

Smithsonian Magazine article discussion the details is here.

And, to coders who are trying to fix it. This is blasphemy, stop it! That code worked fine :) It was a fairly successful operation that we haven't repeated in the last 50 years. 

Here is a nice page that lets you 'replay' the whole thing, both audio and video. This one is a nerd fest too:
