Pretty awesome though, that lady Evans is a real hero!
Looked like a really fun project to work on. I like the picture of the sleeping
bag laid out amidst the stacks of tapes in the "recovery laboratory" (abandoned

There was some mention of the analog tape format but I wish there had been a
little more technical write-up of the old equipment and the transfer process
and issues they went through.
