Description

Interesting and informative, restoration expert / author Saunders has put forth some stunning work here with this slice of history. All the images taken by the Apollo astronauts were already beautiful but the restoration done to all of them makes everything in these 50+ year old images really come to life.

S.) where it was a top 10 bestseller, and listed in New Scientist’s ‘Best Books Of The Year’ 2022 and TIME Magazine’s ‘Best Photobooks Of The Year’ 2022. Startling spacewalks, portraits of astronauts in their spacecraft and dazzling new views of the Earth and Moon give new insight and perspective on man’s exploration of space. The Sunday Times Bestseller, Apollo Remastered is a large format book featuring over 400 of the highest quality Apollo photographs ever published.I thought that after 50 plus years I had seen it all - no new stories, no new photos, no new revelations! Further exhibitions at Xposure in the UAE, in February 2023 and North West England in summer 2023 are also planned. By comparison, printed media ever since the 60s and 70s were produced from duplicate film, or copies of the ‘dupes’; likely via further internegative copies, making them multiple generations away from the original and without the benefit of digital processing. They allow the reader to follow each mission individually, and the program as a whole - from the first views of the curvature of Earth, to setting foot on the Moon, and our last steps on the Moon during Apollo 17. Panoramic images were stitched together, while some images were stacked to improve the image quality and recover some image details.

Saunders has used various editing techniques, including stacking images from 16mm video film, to create much clearer images from these iconic missions than have been seen before.

Owning several books and accounts of/on Apollo this still managed to not only introduce many new photos but further impressed with the standard and quality of the images which are really impressive. The restoration project Apollo Remastered brings out new details and shows the missions as experienced by the astronauts for the first time - it’s a voluminous coffee table book that offers the reader a mesmerizing vision of the bygone moon landing era. Taking newly available digital scans and applying painstaking care and cutting-edge enhancement techniques, he has created the highest quality Apollo photographs ever produced.Andy is without a doubt the leading expert on that golden age of spaceflight thanks to his work on digitally restoring and deciphering the stories behind 50 year old NASA images. America is a great nation that has accomplished so much in advancing mankind; and yet, we can still do so much more! While there is no shortage of books on the Apollo missions, he has made this one stand out in a crowded field, and the reason is evident as soon as you open Apollo Remastered.
