WASHINGTON -- NASA will hold a media briefing at 11 a.m. EDT on
Thursday, July 16, at the Newseum in Washington to release greatly
improved video imagery from the July 1969 live broadcast of the Apollo
11 moonwalk. 

The release will feature 15 key moments from Neil Armstrong's and Buzz
Aldrin's historic moonwalk using what is believed to be the best
available broadcast-format copies of the lunar excursion, some of which
had been locked away for nearly 40 years. The initial video released
Thursday is part of a comprehensive Apollo 11 moonwalk restoration
project expected to be completed by the fall. 

The Newseum is located at 555 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W. The news
conference will be broadcast live on NASA Television and streamed on the
agency's Internet homepage. 

Participants in the briefing will be: 
-- Richard Nafzger, team lead and Goddard engineer 
-- Stan Lebar, former Westinghouse Electric program manager 
-- Mike Inchalik, president of Lowry Digital, Burbank, Calif.

The Newseum is a 250,000-square-foot museum of news. The exterior's
unique architectural features include a 74-foot-high marble engraving of
the First Amendment and an immense front wall of glass through which
passers-by can watch the museum fulfilling its mission of providing a
forum where the media and the public can gain a better understanding of
each other. More information about the Newseum is available online at:

The media briefing will be carried on the NASA TV and on-line
channels.
