Three separate tracking stations: Goldstone (NASA, USA), Honeysuckle Creek (NASA, Australia), and Parkes (CSIRO, Australia) received the Apollo 11 broadcast. And not one of those locations preserved the original tapes of humanity’s most historic event.

Forget about the waving flag and the missing stars.

**The really strange part is this:** the Apollo 11 signal was received and recorded at three separate facilities … Goldstone (NASA, USA), Honeysuckle Creek (NASA/Australia), and Parkes (Australia) … yet the original first-generation tapes from the historic transmission were apparently all lost, erased, or reused.

**The first Moonwalk in human history… and nobody thought to preserve the original recordings?**
