Apollo 15 Astronauts follow their outbound tracks back to the lunar module in 1971. AI enhanced 16 mm footage synchronized for the first time to the live audio. Experience the moon from their perspective travelling on the famous Lunar Rover. ( FYI - The astronauts pet name for the lunar module was the LM, pronounced LEM). While some of our subscribers may wonder what exploring the moon has to do with fashion ( this channel's primary subject), we contend that NASA's early astronauts were about the coolest and most fashionable people on Earth. Apollo 15 was the fourth mission to the moon and the first to have the Lunar Rover. It allowed major excursions by several miles, from the safety of the Lunar Module. We're in the company of mission commander David R. Scott, and Lunar module pilot James B. Irwin. This was filmed during their second day on the moon. The audio ( recorded by NASA) has been synced to the film, for the first time - accurately. You can hear NASA cap-com ( capsule communicator) Joe Allen in real time conversation with the two astronauts. In July 30, 1971, as Alfred M. Worden piloted the Command Module “Endeavor” in lunar orbit, Scott and Irwin descended in the Lunar Module “Falcon,“ to the Mare Imbrium (Sea of Rains) region at the foot of the Apennine mountain over 67 hours of EVA's ( extravehicular activities) they explored Hadley Rille, a steep-walled fissure over 400 meters deep, which winds for more than 100 kilometres along the Apennine mountain range. Footage Source: Apollo 15 16MM Onboard Film Audio Source: Digitized, cataloged and archived by the Houston Audio Control Room, at the NASA Johnson Space Center. AI enhancement: 1. Increased frame rate from 24 fps to 60 fps using Dain app. 2. Upscaled from 360p to 4K 3. Cleaned noise artifacts and removed yellow mask 4. Synched original NASA audio to clip.
