Background to the Apollo 11 Moonwalk television broadcast

Who was receiving the television signal from Apollo 11 when Neil Armstrong stepped onto the lunar surface?

This video provides some insight into one of the most-watched television events of the twentieth century – on Monday 21st July (Australian time) 1969.

I made this in 2006 to go on the "Moonwalks as seen at Honeysuckle Creek" DVD – with Super 8 footage shot by Ed von Renouard at Honeysuckle Creek.

Since then, our Apollo 11 tape search found other recordings, and NASA funded a restoration using the best material.
