Before the first moonlanding one SWC was dropped by an astronaut on a 
"spacewalk" - I am not that much into "space" theory but perhaps it is still 
orbiting the earth ?  By the way I think they took back the magazine - not 
just the film ? All models were disassembled and re-lubricated - a lot of 
functions were blocked to as they were not needed.
