Abstract
- The image of the Neil Armstrong's landmark first steps on the moon, which was taped and telecasted, was not of a very good quality. The tapes held signals transmitted directly from the Apollo II TV camera on the moon to three monitoring stations on Earth, where the signal showed up as quality images on specially designed monitors.
