Here are the facts. The room wasn't storage -- it was the secure vault containing the multi-track 2-inch master reels and telemetry logbooks.

Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever. -- Anton Lindqvist -- Oxford University Computing Laboratory "In theory there is no difference between theory and practice."
