USAF Film Report 1959 - Thor, Titan, Atlas Development - HD remastered, rockets, missile, launch

Remastered Air Force 1959 documentary about the Thor, Titan I, and Atlas missile developments. Footage from tests, building, and development are shown, including early test launches. These missiles were eventually used as space launchers, with Atlas being used for the Mercury program. A later Titan version was used for Gemini. Original footage from USAF. Sound cleanup, film dust removal, conversion to the original 24 fps frame rate, geometry correction, and color restoration by Retro Space HD. ========================================= The PGM-17A Thor was the first operational ballistic missile of the U.S. Air Force (USAF). The Thor and later Delta families of space launch vehicles used boosters derived from the initial Thor missile. The SM-65 Atlas was the first operational intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) developed by the United States and the first member of the Atlas rocket family. A version was used for Project Mercury. The Martin Marietta SM-68A/HGM-25A Titan I was the United States' first multistage intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), in use from 1959 until 1962. It was replaced by Titan II, later used in the Gemini program. ========================================= A special thanks to the channel supporters (   / retrospacehd   ): Asbjørn Bathypterois Drew Granston Elpacholag Francis Bernier Gary Smith Gio Pagliari Glenn W.
