It's realtime. It's a rebroadcast of the Apollo 11 mission radio transmissions - right down to some of it being delayed and the twitter messages happening when the original messages were transmitted and hearing the broadcast a few minutes later. There is some background audio that is frankly crap - but thats been turn off on mine.

Looking forward to hearing the landing and moonwalk though.

I see the option to reduce the volume for the 'background audio', what is that?

It's a background wind noise thing... It's bloody awful.

Good call, that's much better. They just spoke!

Looks like someone was listening, it sounds like the squelch is closed now, no radio noise.

30 minutes until lunar orbit.

You can have the audio without the full flash animation too.

LEM seperation in 30 minutes *currently behind the moon so all there is to hear is radio crackle at the moment*

Man walks on the moon in 3 hours.

Considering I wasn't born for another 9 years - I'm finding this really insteresting - the amount of time they didn't have any contact with them is remarkable.

just bought "Horehound" by "The Dead Weather".

Sweet and dirty rockin' blues. Nice.

Timbaland's Shock Value has been playing in my car constantly and keeping me company on my long drives. Loving it!

Been listening to a local lass recently, Anuhea. A few weeks her album "Anuhea" was ranked at #8 on the iTunes pop chart

Good stuff, mix of R&B and local sounds, talented and lovely lady, had the chance to see her play at the Twestival we organised back in February so have been looking forward to this album.
Worth a listen.
