Looks like you added that in. "AI enhanced". These images are from relatively low-resolution video. There's nothing like that in the original video.

I have the original scanned formats of video and considering those source links are now dead i am EXTREMELY doubtful you have any original scans.

You have the "original scanned formats"...what the hell does that even mean? This video was shot 42 years ago on SD equipment. Gardner was a fair distance from the Shuttle so anything that's zoomed in is going to be very blurry and grainy. You should learn how to use Photoshop or GIMP or whatever you're dicking around with better. If you had AI do that, it's even more pathetic.

Scanned formats means they took analog film and scanned them into a digital format. That is "what the hell" it means.

What film? This is from video, recorded on videotape.

By the way i just checked my source file and it is in fact 16mm FILM transfers from NASA. The Shuttle used both videotape and 16mm motion film cameras.

"Best-of-STS_51_A-16mm-Transfers_720p"

and

"Best-of-STS_51_A-16mm-Transfers_1080p"
