Andy Saunders is a go-to guy for restoring photographs that seem beyond hope. His new book, Apollo Remastered, reveals what happened when this British imaging specialist turned his hand to humanity's ultimate adventure.

However much you think you know the Apollo images, never have they been seen quite like this…

Andy Saunders' remastered images are the best photographs I’ve ever seen of Apollo. They are so clear and real that they are the next best thing to being there. They are an exact representation of what I remember from my journey to the Moon on Apollo 16 - it’s made it come alive to me, after 52 years.

“Apollo Remastered is one of the best records of Apollo history ever produced.”

Apollo Remastered is a fine collection of remastered photographs that depicts the real essence of the Apollo program. It brought back many memories of my time during the missions - an incredible book that will surely be enjoyed for many generations to come.

After five decades, it's very rare that something comes along from Apollo that genuinely surprises me... but this is truly special. It changes everything, in an instant.

It's hard to believe the detail that Andy has pulled out of the old Apollo film, especially the underexposed shots like the one I took of Jim McDivitt that he’s used on the cover of this incredible book. 

The first time I saw it I was just blown away, it's just magical. Through Andy’s techniques everyone can now see what we saw, and why we took the photographs. Given the detailed background that also accompanies the images, Apollo Remastered is a truly valuable record, and a great contribution to the history of human spaceflight.

Seeing historians like Andy Saunders produce such cutting-edge results is incredible. . . 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.

Apollo Remastered by Andy Saunders provided me with a masterful pictorial review of my great days serving as a crewman on four lunar missions. I looked in awe at some pictures of that history that I had never seen before!

Truly epic . . . Some of the scenes you'll recognize; they're among the most iconic photos ever taken. But others you will not have seen before; and certainly not in the detail that Andy has rendered them. They have a crispness and depth that makes you want to reach out and touch them.

The images Andy Saunders has produced from the 50 year old original film are just incredible. I have personally checked the images in the book, and if you want to know what it was really like on the Apollo missions, then this is for you. Maintaining an accurate record of these historic moments is such important work not just now, after half a century, but also for future generations.

Andy Saunders’ Apollo Remastered is a grand statement about our universe. By pairing stunning enhanced images from the Moon’s surface with stills from within the spacecraft, Saunders presents a rare look inside these journeys to the Moon.

The result is an immersive experience that not only captures behind-the-scenes moments, but restores them for future generations.

A peerless photographic masterpiece - almost as audacious as Apollo itself.

If you only buy one Apollo book before the decade is out, make sure it's this one! A total treasure to pore over for a lifetime.

In Mission Control, back in the day, imagination pieced together grainy television images, crew voice reports and the flight plan, to portray mission events. Now, for the first time, Apollo Remastered brings the glory of Apollo and the explorers into sharp focus. 50 years later, I can finally look over the shoulder of Mike Collins and Al Bean and see what they saw.

Several photographs even take on the aura of great paintings or works of art, and as I turn the pages of this incredible book, I once again hear the voices of my Capcom and crews in real time. But now, I become part of the experience as if I were a member of the crew - in the cockpit, exploring the lunar surface, rendezvousing and docking and joining in - seeing the glory of creation for the first time.

This book is absolutely beautiful. It brought back a lot of good memories.

Apollo Remastered by Andy Saunders is a wonder - the reproduction of the photographs taken over 50 years ago is truly amazing. His expert enhancement reveals astonishing detail. There are so many images I’d never seen before and it's a book to come back to again and again. It’s also so much more than a collection of the most amazing photos, there’s masses of information and context - a wonderful history of all the Apollo missions. Magnificent.

This is truly a wonderful volume on the whole Apollo program. As a geologist who worked closely with the astronauts and taught them how to photograph the Moon during the Apollo missions, I was amazed at the detail and clarity of these remastered versions Andy has produced, 50 years later. Also impressive is the research to produce such an accurate record. The information along with each photograph also helps tell the story of the program in such an immersive way. He really has done a great deal for the legacy of the Apollo program.

Even though I worked for NASA for 40 years, I can only view the work Andy does in digital restoration of analog imagery as innovative, creative, and a gift to the world. The precision, the detail, and the validity of his work on the old film from early human spaceflight is breathtaking to me - such incredibly valuable results and contributions to these historic events.

This book is so beautiful. Working in the space industry, it’s hard for me to be in awe of a lot of things as I’m so close to it, but this took my breath away as I was turning the pages. I cannot more highly recommend this.

“A masterpiece.”

An unprecedented look at Apollo. Fifty years later, Apollo Remastered showcases 400 photos from the missions to the Moon in stunning clarity. 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. The results are revealing and beautiful.

Andy’s remastered images leave me stunned. They give me chills. This is as close as any of us will get to joining the Apollo astronauts on their historic missions to the moon—and it’s a lot closer than we ever thought possible. This book, like all of Andy’s work, is much more than a thrill to behold; it’s a profound contribution to our understanding of humanity’s exploration of the heavens.

A truly magnificent and significant addition to the photographic history of spaceflight. It’s also deservedly a hit. Saunders brings new, bold life to familiar photographs of the Space Race, and illuminates detail we have never seen before. 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. The book is beautifully presented and it is genuinely thrilling to read as we see the era of Apollo as if for the first time. It's a book that moves the heart and inspires.

Andy Saunders has been blowing us away with his work, completely changing the way we look at the Apollo missions. Even for people like us who think we've seen everything; we learn so much from him and his work.

Only setting foot onto the Moon ourselves would trump this in my opinion.

Holy moly. I'm stunned! These are spectacular.

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. 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.

Each image has been digitally restored, pixel-by-pixel to give us the clearest view we’ve ever had of the Moon landings.

Jaw-dropping remastered NASA photos.

Andy Saunders’ Apollo Remastered series is unnervingly futuristic. In his final works, previously unseen details are brought into crisp definition, rendering the Apollo missions with a distinct 21st-century look and feel.

Punctured with crisp whites and an unbelievable amount of visual detail - they wouldn’t look out of place in a movie like Interstellar or Gravity.

The result of the restorations, in high definition, is simply breathtaking work. You can admire the spectacular large-format Earth, Neil Armstrong’s first steps, and also moments of life less known. The magnificent final chapter details the history of space photography and even the techniques of the restoration. A book that propels us to the stars.

There aren’t enough powerful words to describe Andy Saunders as a person as well as his work. The precision, the detail, and the validity of his work on the old film from early human spaceflight is breathtaking to me. I find it difficult to even imagine the methodology used to analyze this filmed media and increase the fidelity to such a degree, let alone implement that methodology to achieve such incredibly valuable results and contributions to these historic events.
