This definitive photographic collection of NASA’s Gemini and Mercury space programs reveals hundreds of newly-restored images and untold stories from the NASA archives that provide a never-before-seen perspective on these critical missions that paved the way for the Moon landing and today’s NASA, Boeing, and Space X endeavors. 

Astronauts working on the earliest space missions, from Project Mercury to the Gemini missions of the mid-1960s, answered fundamental questions about the possibilities of long-duration space travel, paving the way for the Apollo missions and, ultimately, the Moon landings. They also took the first, and still some of the finest, photographs of Earth ever captured on film. Now, the bestselling author of Apollo Remastered, Andy Saunders has restored images from these first missions to show them in unprecedented detail and tell their full story, filled with dramatic life or death moments, mischievous pranks and astonishing triumphs. This stunning visual odyssey brings to life the pivotal, intimate moments of early space travel, unveiling the raw beauty and profound challenges faced by the pioneering astronauts pushing the boundaries of human achievement. Gemini and Mercury Remastered is a striking tribute to the visionaries who dared to dream beyond our world and a testament to the enduring power of exploration.
 

Genre:

  • “Just like the Mercury astronauts before me, I witnessed the Earth as it truly is for the first time aboard Gemini 7 and 12. These remastered photos, in such detail and clarity, bring back clear memories of my journeys into space.  Andy Saunders not only brings to the surface the value of the Mercury and Gemini programs, but more importantly, allows people around the world to experience the same incredible awe of our beautiful Earth as the astronauts did on those very first voyages into space.”
