Pretty kual.
I knew NASA had Amigas, but didn't know much beyond that...
But this was recommended to me by youtube today:

Nice. Thanks for sharing. I remember reading about this ages ago in some Amiga mags.

I wonder if they still use some of them. If it works, why fix it, eh?

Perhaps A-EON should push the X-1000 to them.
2x A1000, 2x A2000, 1x A3000, 4x A1200, 3x A500, 1x CDTV, 1x CD32, 2x Pegasos II, 1x EFIKA

There used to be a webpage about this issue out there as well (its probably around still). No, they are not used anymore, a few years back some of these babies with Nasa Amiga stickers showed up on Ebay.

Thanks, but I am talking about new text in good English, Obligement is Google Translate from French.

Other one is Q&A session

Foolishness, the landings were clearly faked using Photogenics, not DPaint ;-)
Amigas owned:
1) A1200 Power Tower, Blizzard PPC 603+040 128Mb, BVision
2) A1200 Desktop with an ugly looking hole hacked out of the trap door cover to accommodate a DCE built Blizzard 1260 with 64Mb (angled SIMM slot).
not in use:
3) A4000/040 - has an Emplant card installed.  Sadly no video output:-( current location: loft
4) A1000 - owned it since about 1988, current location: loft (AFAIK it still works though)
Sundry bits:
Blizzard 12

Interesting to see Hal Greenlee mentioned in the video.

I bought my CDTV from Hal.
