This is immense. The curation in this shows painstaking work.

I think it's the same thing they put up on the internet for the 40th anniversary. Still good though.

The fella that put this together has done a little chat on the subject. Not a huge fan of youtube but some interesting nuggets in there especially tapes not heard for 50 years that were incorporated into the 11 site.

What's the problem with You Tube? To me it's just another TV channel. I don't look at what I don't like and do look at what I do like.

The space channels on You Tube are some of my favourites. LM5, Scott Manley, TMRO, Vintage Space, The Everyday Astronaut are the ones I look at most often.

My choice and reasons if I am not a great fan. I appreciate there is a lot of good stuff on there.

It is woven extremely well into Apollo 11 and 17 live.

If you watch You Tube on TV then you can avoid the lure of the comments section. That is the one part of You Tube that can be annoying - but only if you chose to read the comments.

I like the concept of individuals being able to load up their own content. It's something I'd like to do myself but simply don't have the time. I follow quite a few channels - not only on space and aviation but also a few motorhomers and some other travellers or US residents living in the UK.
