Retro Space HD | Research Project X-15 - Hypersonic Research Aircraft, NASA, 1960s, HD Remaster @RetroSpaceHD | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
Restored NASA documentary from the 1960s about the X-15 research aircraft. Footage from several historical flights is shown, along with crews and hardware.
The video was remasted to improve color balance and stability. AI upscale (Topaz AI) was used to resample the video to full HD resolution. While it works in most cases, some artifacts are present in some sequences.
Sound and image cleanup, AI upscale and color restoration by RetroSpace HD. Some music segments were replaced by background sounds.
The North American X-15 is a hypersonic rocket-powered aircraft operated by the United States Air Force and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as part of the X-plane series of experimental aircraft. The X-15 set speed and altitude records in the 1960s, crossing the edge of outer space and returning with valuable data used in aircraft and spacecraft design.
