I received today (29/06/2010) by a NASA spokesman in an email update on the situation of restoration of the live broadcast of the Apollo 11 mission. The restoration was completed, but NASA is still working on a deployment plan. Everything should be completed by the end of July. It is not known whether the video will be distributed online and whether they will pay or not.
UPDATE: I wrote initially that they did not know anything yet, however, the overflow correctly (no problems focusing) of shooting with 16mm film of the mission. On 06/30/2010 I contacted FootageVault.com, which confirmed to me that the new repayment is ready and available in HD. Here you see next to a fast qualitative comparison between the previous and current version: Left the HD version of focus, the new right: the difference is remarkable. The new image, moreover, comes from free low-resolution version of repayment, and then the HD version will be more detailed. From webmaster at Arizona State University instead of a few days ago I received information that the photographs taken by astronauts will undergo a scan at even higher resolution than is currently available: by the end of 2012 should be available to 6400 x 6400 pixels ( those in color) and 12,800 x 12,800 pixels (black and white ones), the details are here . This will allow you to browse images in even greater detail.
Tuttavia, visti i continui ritardi, a questo punto inizio il montaggio di Moonscape usando la versione non restaurata della diretta, la ripresa 16mm definitiva e le foto alla risoluzione attualmente disponibile. Sarà una sorta di versione 1.0, che verrà aggiornata man mano che diventeranno disponibili i materiali restaurati e aggiornati.
Mi sono dovuto inoltre arrendere al fatto che un montaggio in HD non è praticabile in tempi brevi sul laptop che uso anche per lavoro, per cui ho ordinato una macchina che verrà dedicata esclusivamente a questo compito: la Moonscape Machine , un iMac 27" con 8 GB di RAM e Final Cut Pro. A questa assocerò un secondo monitor e/o il mio proiettore HD e un po' di dischi external hard drives.
As soon as I get permission for the music, I will put online the first official trailer for Moonscape .
