From the Moon to McDonalds

The Lunar Orbiter mission results, a scientific treasure trove of images, were little studied and barely saved from trashing. Space entrepeneurs Keith Cowing and Dennis Wingo found the data tapes stored in a defunct McDonald's restaurant and set about retrieving the images. Kudos to these two scientific detectives!
