Retro Space HD | The Island Called Wallops - Sounding Rockets, Scout, NASA, 1965, HD Remaster @RetroSpaceHD | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Restored NASA documentary from 1965 about Wallops Flight Center (now Wallops Flight Facility). The installations and activities happening there - flight tracking and sounding rocket launches - are shown. A Scout launch is shown in detail.
The video was remasted to improve color balance and stability. The original was of very low quality and suffered from strong vignetting and color gradients. These were corrected as best as possible. 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.
