APOLLO Remastered at Birkenhead’s Williamson Art Gallery and Museum will showcase spectacular images from Andy Saunders’ extraordinary bestselling book on a never before seen scale.

The original NASA photographic film from the Apollo missions is some of the most important and valuable film in existence. It is securely stored in a frozen vault at Johnson Space Center, Houston. It never leaves the building; in fact, the film rarely leaves the freezer. The images it contains include the most significant moments in our history, as humankind left the confines of our home planet for the 1st time and set foot on another world.

For half a century, almost every image of the Moon landings publicly available was produced from a lower-quality copy of these originals. Until now…

Apollo Remastered lands at Williamson Art Gallery & Museum, on:- 28 April 2023, showcasing images from Andy Saunders’ extraordinary book of the same name. Saunders invites viewers to explore the Moon landings in spectacular high definition for the very 1st time. By applying pain-staking care and cutting-edge enhancement techniques, he has created the highest quality Apollo photographs ever produced.

The exhibition of these images at the Williamson will be the biggest staged anywhere in the world to date. It will present the photographs on a large scale, offering awe inspiring insight into 1 of our greatest endeavours.

Williamson Art GGalleryand Museum curator Niall Hodson added:- “The grainy black and white images of the Apollo missions loom large in everyone’s imagination. These new high definition photographs are a revelation. It is almost like you are there in the lunar module, you can see everything so clearly. I'm delighted that people across Merseyside and the North West will have the chance to see these images from the Apollo missions at the Williamson in Birkenhead; the only place they’ll have been shown in England outside London.”

Exhibition Opening night is on:- Thursday, 27 April 2023, from:- 6pm to 8pm.
