Great videos!! Thank you!!In the Aerials of KSC film, there's some great helicopter footage, including some low flying. Note NASA Causeway did not go west, beyond US1, at the time of the video and the then KSC Visitor Center is on the southeast side of that interchange. In the Footage of Headquarters video, it looks like there are range type antennas on top of the Central Instrumentation Facility (CIF). There's good footage of the KSC Industrial Area. There are two guys playing frisbee at the old HMF hyper control building, M7-1061. Two wings are being added to the old HQ building in this footage. In the Visitors Spaceport Center video, note the adult ticket price is $2.50! |

I think that is the Apollo 10 launch seen at 3:49 in this 65mm Apollo 11 Rollout film. |

The Apollo 8 recovery footage is incredible!
I am noticing that some films on the long Panavision list may have multiple reels. For example, the "255-PV-131: Apollo 8 Recovery" item now has three reels. |

It looks like the Apollo 17 launch may have been filmed in 65mm, based on the size of this frame. Photo number is KSC-72PC-598. The TIFF image of the frame is massive (675MB).  |
