Title: Commentary Field
Post by: TechnoCaveman on September 08, 2026, 12:51:47 am

Hi! I really enjoy this site, thank you for all the effort. I have a quick question about the COMMENTARY field. Is there an audio track that can be turned on or is it only in text format? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately it’s text only. Interviews were done with the crews many years after each mission and the commentary is the transcripts of those interviews. It would be wonderful to find that source material but I don’t know where it might be.

Thank you. It would be a real big bonus to add the audio recordings, assuming it exists. These is some interesting comments and insight contained within that field. I just recently discovered it!

The audio of the Apollo 11 crew debrief at least does still exist, because lunarmodule5 managed to get it from NARA.
