Instructions for Uploading Digital Evidence to NASA

For anyone who has recorded video or taken photos that
they believe may be of aid in the investigation of the
Space Shuttle Columbia accident, NASA has established
a special location on the Web where Internet users may
upload their media files to be reviewed by NASA.

Using the FTP method of your choice, log on to the server
38.201.67.72 as "anonymous," using your e-mail address
as your password.

Example:
User ID: anonymous
Password: john_doe_at_hotmail.com

Along with any image or video file that you wish to
upload, please include a text file containing your name and
a detailed description of the time and location at which the
image or video was taken.

Example: I, John Doe, recorded this video in my front
yard at 1111 My Street in Nacogdoches, Texas, at 7:55
a.m. on the morning of Saturday, Feb. 1, 2003.

Please be sure that your media file and your text file
conform to the following naming convention: your first
and last name, an underscore, the date the files are being
uploaded, another underscore and the time the files are
being uploaded. Other than the file extension (.jpg, .txt,
.rm), the names of the two files you upload should be the
same.

Example:
Image file: johndoe_020203_0415pm.jpg
or
Video file: johndoe_020203_0415pm.rm
and
Text file: johndoe_020203_0415pm.txt

Then, upload your media and text files.

Please note that files contained on this site are not listable.
Therefore, users will not be able to view any files
uploaded to the server, including their own.

If you have any problems uploading your files, please
e-mail Mike Koester (michael.koester1_at_jsc.nasa.gov) of
the Johnson Space Center.
