NASA admitted in 2006 that no one could find the original video recordings of the July 20, 1969, landing.

Flight Centre in Maryland, who oversaw television processing at the
ground-tracking sites during the Apollo 11 mission, has been looking
for them.The good news is he found where they went. The bad news is they were part of a batch of 200,000 tapes that were degaussed — magnetically erased — and re-used to save money. —Reuters
