Hi there :-)
Any news about when Apollo 16 is coming online?
I am really looking forward to that :-)

bfeist:
Not for several years. Hold-up at the National Archives.

Kasper:
Okay. But what do you mean with a hold up?

MadDogBV:
As noted in an earlier post, there was a delay - likely as a result of COVID-19 and budget constraints - and it looks like the end date of the project was pushed back to August 2024 according to NSF's award page.

Naraht:
Is Apollo 16 planned to include the Mission Control loops?

(I swear I've spent more than 20 years lying awake at night worrying that all these tapes are going to crumble into dust before they're digitized. I'm glad that the NSF-funded project got extended but I'm not going to relax yet.)
