A friend of mine visited the Johnson Space Center with a friend of his who worked there a few years ago and got the behind the scenes tour. Lots of old simulators, test rigs, etc. Then they went into a huge wing of the center that used to be offices, but is now abandoned due to the lower staffing after Apollo ended.
The place was strewn with millions of pages of Apollo technical documentation, in total disarray. Years ago, they put all of these documents in binders and stacked them in the abandoned wing. Over time, people needed binders, and took them, leaving stacks of paper. Over the years, the ventilation system cycled on and off, the papers blew around, until now it's just a sea of random paper.
