‘We Choose the Moon’ to recreate Apollo 11 mission

In approximately 19 hours, We Choose The Moon will enter “stage 2″ and the Apollo 11 moon mission will be recreated in real time.  I’m not exactly sure of the recreation details, but from what appears on the site currently, it looks like there could be a audio stream between the astronauts and mission control, unfolding as it happened.  I’m also banking on more pictures, graphics and a possible video or two.

A related note: Slashdot comes with word of NASA restoring lost Apollo 11 tapes and is holding a briefing tomorrow to announce their release.  It would be nice to see this greatly improved quality of the moonwalk on the We Choose The Moon site.
