About this deal

Trading Address (Warehouse) Unit E, Vulcan Business Complex, Vulcan Road, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE5 3EB. More than four hundred digitally remastered images from NASA’s Apollo missions fill the pages of this stunning coffee-table-sized book. Each print is a large-format photographic print and should be handled with extreme care; ideally with cotton gloves to avoid transfer of oils. Andy Saunders trawled through 35,000 images held in NASA’s archives; studying each one, frame-by-frame, and although some looked far from promising, what they contained was extraordinary. 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.

The photos are accompanied by short mission summaries and detailed information about the photographer and technical specs of the film and cameras where known. That said, I have been enthralled with 60s space exploration from Mercury through Apollo and built models of the the Saturn V on the launch pad, the LEM on the lunar surface, and the docked Apollo Soyuz modules when I was a kid. on the moon, other than the famous 'Man on the Moon' photo of Buzz Aldrin with Neil reflected in his visor. He also creates wholly new images through stacking frames of 16mm film, which open up the interior of Apollo spacecraft or give unexpected views of the Lunar surface. Other editions in the range are limited to three Artist’s Proofs (A/P) and one Exhibition Print (E/P) directly from the wall of any extended public exhibition.

Anders als andere Rezensenten will ich aufgrunddessen allerdings nicht den Artikel abwerten, der glatte 5 Sterne verdient. However, there are a couple of egregious typos for such a meticulous book--dates on Apollo 12 and 15 summaries are wrong. Most of the images you’ll have seen from the missions are reproductions of reproductions and have lost a lot of their detail and vibrancy. The original images allowed the world to share the astronaut’s experience of the lunar surface, but now the missions are being seen through a new lens, exposing some long-lost secrets. Now, for the first time, Apollo Remastered brings the glory of Apollo and the explorers into sharp focus.
