Spacelog: stories of early space exploration from the original NASA transcripts
- andrewgodwin 16y agoA point that might be interesting for HN people: the source code is freely available on GitHub at https://github.com/Spacelog/Spacelog https://github.com/Spacelog/Spacelog We also made sure the missions were in a VCS-friendly text format, so people can fork and merge in changes (everything, down to all the images, ships in a single mission folder, so it's pretty reuseable for different missions)

- clinton 16y agoThe pivotal moment of Apollo 13: http://apollo13.spacelog.org/02:07:55:35/ http://apollo13.spacelog.org/02:07:55:35/ I found the transcript following the famous phrase chilling, it simply oozes fear.

- brandnewlow 16y agoThis is cool. What else could a format like this be applied to? Shakespeare?
