Armstrong’s widow finds Apollo 11 souvenirs
NEW YORK
More than 40 years after the Apollo 11 moon landing, a cloth satchel full of souvenirs brought back by Neil Armstrong has come to light.
Among the trove is a 16-mm movie camera from inside the lunar module that filmed its descent to the moon and Armstrong’s first steps on the lunar surface in 1969.
The discovery was revealed last week by the National Air and Space Museum, which already is displaying the camera in a temporary exhibit.
The bag was found by Armstrong’s widow recently while cleaning out a closet.
‘Suge’ Knight to stay jailed in murder case
COMPTON, CALIF.
Marion “Suge” Knight will remain behind bars for the next six weeks in a murder case while lawyers prepare for a hearing that prosecutors said Monday could include evidence of other crimes.
Knight is charged with murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run after he struck two men in a Compton parking lot during a Jan. 29 confrontation.
His lawyers say the men were struck by accident as Knight tried to escape an attack.
The decision to keep him jailed came at a hearing that also shed light on Knight’s hospitalization last week after he pleaded not guilty.
His attorney, David Kenner, said the co-founder of Death Row Records passed out and had serious breathing problems after his arraignment.
