What the hell is this thing? I found it in the Wing building at base... it's like a vcr - only the tapes are bigger! Maybe one of my elders can help me out and let me know what it is! ;)

on eBay!!! Just think, someday people will look at this stuff the way we
look at astrolabes.

so those giant vcr looking things are called 'betamax' huh... I decided to pop it in and try the system out, and I found a tape from 1977 or so of the blue angels... they were flying A-4s 8)
 
I remember those! Don't they have a ceramic disk inside that goes round when you crank a handle?
