You can individually select and listen to over 30 tracks of audio, such as in a control room or in a spacecraft. For example, if you select 'SPACE ENV', it will switch to the communication voice of spacecraft and weather information.

The control room's voice corresponds to the figure on the right, so you can listen to each seat. You can see the progress of historical great feats of 49 years and 11 months as live like through the internet. The roles of each department in the control room are as follows.
BOOSTER: Support from Apollo 11 launch to getting into orbit.
RETRO: Support until Apollo 11 returns to Earth.
FIDO: Apollo 11 support for all missions.
GUIDO: Manage and support system aspects such as Apollo 11 command ship computer.
SURGEON: Monitor the health of the crew, including heart rate and breathing rate.
CAPCOM: A unit that can talk directly with the spacecraft crew, communicate and communicate verbally.
EECOM: Apollo 11

Commander- Monitors power supply systems and environmental systems of machine ships .
GNC: Management and support of hardware such as control of Apollo 11 machine ship.
TELCOM: Monitoring of life support devices and power systems installed on the lunar lander .
CONTROL: Control and monitoring of the hardware component of the lunar lander.
INCO: Monitoring of communication systems of command vessels and lunar landers.
O & P: Procedures and confirmation about things done in Apollo 11 and the control room.
AFD: Assisted Flight Director (FLIGHT).
FLIGHT: Flight director with absolute authority in the Apollo program.
NETWORK: A unit that communicates with NASA's ground stations and collects data.

Also, if you click the rightmost tab 'Atromaterial Samples' on the right of the screen, you can view the photos and data of the actually collected sand while watching the crew of Apollo 11 collect sand on the moon surface in the movie I was able to do.

The launch scene of the Saturn V rocket has already ended in real time, but if you click 'T-MINUS 1M' from the top page ...

It can be seen again from the launch. Since the tension around the launch pad and control tower at that time is transmitted from the sound and the movie from the sound and the movie, please be sure to look at your eyes with your own eyes.
