Film sequences are shown in the proper context as much as possible. When allowed by the original framing, the footage was manually cropped to 16:9, panning to preserve areas of interest. When not, 4:3 was maintained. No image details were lost.
Wide-angle interior Command Module footage was corrected to remove fisheye lens distortions.
The footage was AI remastered on some segments, besides the usual color correction. Ambient audio was recreated based on historical elements.
Period narration (from several documentaries and progress reports) is used in an attempt to capture the feeling of the times. Language and attitudes should be seen in that context.

============================================
Apollo 10 (May 18 – 26, 1969) was a human spaceflight, the fourth crewed mission in the United States Apollo program, and the second (after Apollo 8) to orbit the Moon. It was a "dress rehearsal" for the first Moon landing, testing all the components and procedures just short of actually landing.
While astronaut John Young remained in the Command Module orbiting the Moon, astronauts Thomas Stafford and Gene Cernan flew the Apollo Lunar Module (LM) to a descent orbit within 8.4 nautical miles (15.6 km) of the lunar surface, the point where powered descent for landing would begin.
After orbiting the Moon 31 times, Apollo 10 returned safely to Earth, and its success enabled the first actual landing (Apollo 11) two months later.
Apollo 10 set the record for the highest speed attained by a crewed vehicle: 39,897 km/h (11.08 km/s or 24,791 mph) on May 26, 1969, during the return from the Moon.
The mission's call signs were the names of the Peanuts characters Charlie Brown and Snoopy, who became Apollo 10's semi-official mascots.

Outstanding. Such an underrated mission. I am currently reading John Young's autobiography, and even he doesn't have much to say about it, but this was fantastic. Thank you so much.
-
Apollo 11 and 13 get so much attention, but to me, Apollo 10 and 16 were the best missions, and all of the crewed Apollo missions were equally amazing! They should get more recognition.
-
Amazing documentary! Pre-Apollo 11 missions sadly don't get much recognition, when they were essential for the safe landing of Apollo 11 and later crews.
-
I met Gene Cernan back in the late 90s. I told him that I (as a second grader) witnessed the launch of Apollo 17 from only 15 miles away in the middle of the night. It lit up the sky – half daylight and half night. It was the most incredible thing I ever saw. He said that he had a really good view himself! This was a great production! Good narration, excellent editing and fantastic choice of films and materials. It really explained the mission as I never knew it.
-
Was at the science museum in London yesterday where Charlie Brown is on display. I spent ages staring at it. Also a full size mock up of the Apollo 11 Lunar lander, its enormous!
-
Fantastic video ! Very well put together, lots of footage I had never seen before. Thank you and I look forward to more Apollo videos.
-
It's mindboggling to think that NASA achieved so much in less than a decade.
-
Phenomenal work in putting this all together 50+ years later. According to some accounts NASA downplayed the severity of the loss of control upon lunar ascent. Some reports indicated the crew was only seconds away from crashing into the moon.
-
How does this amazing video have so few likes? Thank you.
-
An absolutely first class production! Definitely one to watch again! Thank you :)
-
This is excellent. I don’t think I’ve seen a better more in depth look at this particular mission.
-
Second!:) And man, you have a real talent for this stuff. You are really good and if you use it right it will take you to the stars!
-
More of project 'Apollo'..is never enough !
-
You've excelled yourself. Many thanks.
-
5 manned missions in 9 months was crazy fast
-
Those guys are true heroes. All of 450,000 of them.
-
Thank you very much for putting this together. Using original narration from various sources but with enhanced picture quality works wonders! Just what I needed at this moment as we remember with gratitude the contributions to the space program made by Tom Stafford.
-
Quality stuff. This was a good crew as well 😉
-
Absolutely fantastic video ! Footage and clips were absolutely awesome
-
Great video, thanks for this, I’m watching anything I can get my hands on with the early nasa missions from Mercury to Apollo, I love how with A-10 they put a limited amount of fuel in the LEM ascent stage so they couldn’t land incase they got giddy about landing early instead of A-11! Also: wouldn’t it be great if we could send up a rocket or space craft to snag snoopy out of its orbit and bring it back to earth for studying and then out on display in a museum.
