Retro Space HD | STS-1 Landing - Tracking Plane Views, AI Remaster, Deinterlace 60fps, Upscale, Audio, Space Shuttle @RetroSpaceHD | Uploaded November 2023 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
Tracking plane and ground TV camera views of the first space shuttle landing on April 14, 1981, at Edwards Air Force Base. The landing is shown with synchronized side-by-side video (with separate sound channels) from two cameras, and then in separate camera takes. Colors were corrected for consistency, and the audio was cleaned up.

AI upscale (Topaz AI) was used to deinterlace the the 480i60 video sequence to 1080p60 HD resolution, restoring the original 60 fps. While it works in most cases, some artifacts are present in some sequences.

Sound and image cleanup, conversion to original frame rate, AI upscale and color restoration by RetroSpace HD.

========================================
STS-1 (Space Transportation System-1) was the first orbital spaceflight of NASA's Space Shuttle program. The first orbiter, Columbia, launched on April 12, 1981, and returned on April 14, 1981, having orbited the Earth 37 times. Columbia carried a crew of two—mission commander John W. Young and pilot Robert L. Crippen.
