Dramatic and previously unheard recordings of the moment the Russians tried to gatecrash the American’s Moon landing in 1969 have today been released by The University of Manchester’s Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics. The recordings were made in the Control Room of the famous Jodrell Bank Observatory, where astronomer Sir Bernard Lovell and colleagues were listening to transmissions coming from the moon.
