And what timeline is that exactly?  Perhaps I need to rewatch CONFETTI
CHECK A-OK again, but I don't recall any exact dates for when things
took place.  It seems to me that the meeting in Nina Barry's apartment
could have occurred anywhere between 1971 - 1979.  And no matter what
year you choose, it would NOT be believable, because there is no way
they could have built all of that SHADO hardware in 10 years.  A lot
of that technology is unachievable, even today.  :-)

As far as we know, that apartment meeting could have taken place in
1972, and from 1972 - 1980 they spent building Moonbase, SID,
Skydiver, the Lunar Carrier/Module, the Mobiles, the Moon Mobiles,
plus training lots more recruits.
