The appearance of an 066 field:

in a record where you don’t expect to see non-Latin characters (in this case, Arabic) can be a clue that something has gone wrong with migrated or pasted-in text. This record includes this sentence in its summary:

A similar field in the same record includes the sentence:
Before John Glenn orbited the Earth or Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, a group of professionals worked as “Human Computers,” calculating the flight paths that would enable these historic achievements.
I don’t know precisely what went wrong here, but it has happened thoughout the text whenever there are quotation marks (such as around “colored computers”); I assume it is smart quotes-related, as they often don’t copy between formats well. Similarly, apostrophes (such as in “NASA’s golden age”) have migrated in as “#x0;”.
