Leider muß ich dem Rezensenten Christian Eissel recht geben: auch mir wurde das Buch in einem viel zu großen Karton geschickt, in dem es nur durch minimales gerolltes Packpapier geschützt hin und her rutschen konnte. 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.

His new book, Apollo Remastered, reveals what happened when this British imaging specialist turned his hand to humanity's ultimate adventure. The expertise of pre-press specialists, countless stages of digital proofing, and assessing / amending the prints as they came off the presses at some of the world’s finest printers have helped achieve this goal. The scanned images were then altered to adjust the contrast and colour and to remove dust, damage and other artefacts. Each Apollo mission gets its own chapter, with an introductory page about the astronauts, the mission and the photography (it isn't just 'here are some photos', it's a book about photography in space), then you get the shots. Details about each of the key missions as well as the key occurrences about each of the missions have been well-documented and thoughtfully presented.Not only has Andy done a remarkable job bringing more details to light, but his incredible work has also created a lot of public excitement.

Note: it's quite difficult to convey details about photo quality in writing, so below there are a couple of links to the NASA-managed Flickr Project Apollo Archive page, probably the most complete collection on the Interwebs, and to the official Apollo Remastered page. Now, for the first time, Apollo Remastered brings the glory of Apollo and the explorers into sharp focus. I remember the moon walk, the Apollo missions, the moments when I would look up at the sky during recess knowing that Scott Carpenter or John Glenn were circling the Earth.The photos of what we would now consider primitive, analog, technology in the spacecraft, lunar module, and lunar rover.
