Description
Apollo 11, 1969, "Death Plan for Sunday Night". Dated 18/7/69, this letter and accompanying tentative scripts, outline NASA's plans for a contingency plan should the moon landing tv or sound coverage be lost during the upcoming moon landing (or g-d forbid, a cresh landing), thus leaving live tv coverage of the landing with an empty tv screen. The plans called for having still of each of the astronauts on tap and a short scripted biography at hand, for Paul Haney to have a number of subjects to talk about, monitering the Voice of America, taking in CBS radio news feed to give viewers an instant reaction from their remotes, and the newsroom to keep a steady supply of reaction, events and tributes flowing from around the world. These are important "What if" behind the scenes documents that show how NASA was planning ahead. Probably unique today.
Estimated Value $350 - 500.
