On July 20th 1969 the world watched as the astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon for the first time in human history. He immortalised that moment in space exploration with "one small step for man, a giant leap for mankind". Hardly any audio was released to the public but NASA did record thousands of hours of audio communications between the astronauts and engineers at mission control throughout the landmark mission. Most of these tapes sat in storage gathering dust. But now after a year's work digitising these tapes the story of Apollo 11 can be told in a new way. Greg Wiseman is an audio engineer from NASA Television at the Johnson Space Center in Houston and he took Dan Damon through some of this never heard before audio.
