Apollo 11, reinactment of the first moon landing on the web

For any space nuts out there, looks interesting.:)

The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is nearing the launch date of their new interactive website designed to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing, inspired by President Kennedy’s grand vision that made the achievement possible.

WeChooseTheMoon.org, http://www.wechoosethemoon.org, will go live on July 16, 2009 at 8:02 a.m. and will take off at 9:32 a.m. – exactly 40 years to the minute after the historic launch. The site, powered by AOL, will recreate Apollo 11’s lunar mission, minute by minute, with an interactive experience that lets visitors experience the mission as it happened, using archival audio, video, photos and “real-time” transmissions on the site and via Twitter.

I think I'd rather see a reinactment of the 1986 Challanger launching.

It ended with much more excitement.

Will they use the same studio they used to fake the original mission? I want authenticity, dammit. :D
