NASA Photo, Video Collection to be Digitised

With a 50-year collection of photos, videos, films and other material, NASA’s archives from manned and unmanned space missions is almost as vast as outer space. And now, NASA is undertaking a project to put all of that material into a central archive that can be searched by space flight aficionados. NASA said it has reached a deal with the nonprofit, San Francisco-based Internet Archive to scan, archive and manage the agency’s vast collection. The effort will be paid for solely through grants, foundations and individual contributions received by the Internet Archive
