- Restored NASA documentary about the Apollo 7 mission. AI upscale (Topaz AI) was used to improve a soft HD source. While it works in most cases, some artifacts are present in some sequences.
Original in-flight film sequences and photos were replaced with modern sources, matched frame by frame.
Color was corrected by scene. Wide angle lens distortion present on the 16mm DAC footage and on the Apollo TV camera images was also corrected. Sound equalization and noise reduction were applied.
Some TV footage was sourced from the LM5 channel: / @lunarmodule5
Sound and image cleanup, conversion to original 24 fps frame rate, geometry correction, AI upscale, and color restoration by RetroSpace HD.
============================================
Apollo 7 was the first crewed flight in NASA's Apollo program. The Apollo 7 crew was commanded by Walter M. Schirra, with command module pilot Donn F. Eisele and lunar module pilot R. Walter Cunningham.
Apollo 7 was launched on October 11, 1968, from Cape Kennedy Air Force Station, Florida, and splashed down in the Atlantic Ocean eleven days later. Extensive testing of the CSM took place, and also the first live television broadcast from an American spacecraft.

Apollo 7 gets so little respect for what they did in the shadow of uncertainty caused by the tragic Apollo 1 incident. Thanks for sharing the important space flight of Walt, Wally, and whats-his-name (Donn Eisele)
dangerous testing for sure, but Gemini had done much.
More like #8 & 10 need more popular recognition.
Beautiful looking spacecraft fully stacked was Apollo 7. Saturn IB was a great little rocket.
Thank you for posting.
I have been saying this for _decades_ : what made Wally Schirra irritable was not his 'cold' (although he may have had one). What made Wally Schirra irritable was NICOTINE WITDRAWAL. Wally Schirra was one of the heaviest smokers amongst all the astronauts at that time (I have read up to 2 packs a day). Up to this time Schirra's two previous flights were relatively short duration: MA-8: 9 hrs 13 min, Gemini 6A: 25 hrs 51 min. But Apollo 7 was nearly _11 days_ . The number one symptom of nicotine withdrawal is _irritability_ . Nicotine withdrawal can be worse than heroin withdrawal. As a long time former/reformed smoker - I know. Schirra would never admit this issue (although he eventually quit smoking sometime in the 1990s) nor would NASA.
A can of Copenhagen, maybe those guys could have flown again.
I’d very much disagree, he was a naval test pilot and his personality was somewhat of a perfectionist. So yes after several days of a schedule that overloaded the entire crew with continuous tasks and lack of proper sleep, then add a head cold and even yes the nicotine withdrawal issue and certainly he was one PO’d astronaut. But nicotine alone, no. The only area Wally Schirra got himself in hot water with management was his refusal to put on his helmet during reentry. The chief flight ground controller wanted him permanently grounded after that. But he planned to retire after that flight so it did not matter.
Wally reportedly stopped smoking in 1968.
@@dukeford8893 Schirra was still smoking at least into the 1980s
@@Paul1958R Good point ... I think you are right .
For a smoker to be in space .... it would be hell.
Apollo 7, 9 and 10 are the forgotten missions that were so crucial to the success of the program.
This is an excellent remastering of the original film, and must have required a lot of work! Just one minor note, however: the video title says "1967," but of course, Apollo 7 flew in October 1968, so this film couldn't have been released before late 1968 at the earliest.
Amazing what they can do now, how was this filmed?
Looks great. Was a really important mission that gets overlooked.
Thanks for the upload.
I remember Apollo 7. I was 14 years old.
Apollo 7 was the first space flight I witnessed in real time on radio broadcast, including the problems with the cold. Sort-of my "Apollo moment".
I think it's a great trade-off without too much distortion. Great Job! AATW!
This looks just beautiful!
Hi from Glasgow Scotland 🏴 Thanks for a great video 📹
Great work, fantastic restored!
I almost feel sorry for those Apollo and space/Moon deniers whose acquired mental problems prevent them from sharing in history's greatest achievements. Almost, but not.
that is so very nice, but what about the sane normal full of science Intellectuals & Professionals that cater /debunk mental Problems?
You are aware there has been hundreds of Articles, YT Accounts, Websites, books to counter the "no evidence" nonsense, are yee not? Even more *sorry* Lot no?
This was late October, 1968.
Two months later, NASA assembled the whole stack and went to the moon.
Amazing work 😱, thank you very much 🤜🤛👨🚀
Awesome work!
Simply stunning.
After days of dealing with three irascible astronauts with head colds, Chris Kraft vowed that Eisle and Cunningham would never fly in space again. He knew he couldn’t do anything about Wally - he was set to retire anyway. In an interview years later, Craft allowed as to why Wally would have been so uptight - after all, Gus Grissom had been a close personal buddy - but he still couldn’t forgive the astronaut’s unprofessional behavior toward flight directors.
Great video. The only actual problem Apollo 7 had was Wally Schirra caught that cold and became an axxhole...
CORRECTION: Apparently Mr. Schirra was suffering from nicotine withdrawal, which I've been through too, so I understand now. But he never flew again and most likely NASA learned from this... a 2 pack a day smoker can just not stop without some pretty serious side effects.
The forgotten mission 😢
Nice, Some say no going above Karmin LIne, think is done, questionable if above LEO is humanly possible.
What is filming all these amazing going-ons?
Wow

最近看了宇航员Eugene Andrew Cernan的书才知道当时发生了什么
God bless their souls. It was not their fault.
indeed, question is if they knew coming in....
The video title shouldn't say "1967" it should be 1968. @ 1:47+ I wonder if that was that guy's first countdown for a launch, it sounded like they really stumbled through the last few seconds. I'm still not even sure what he was trying to say(Jar Arm?), it's like a dyslexic who accidently combines words and such. I can't say I would do any better though, thats a high pressure situation.
screw ai- everything i this world is artificial.
