Space Shuttle astronaut Kenneth Cockrell with a digital Nikon NASA F4 HERCULES Reflected in the visor is the camera used for this astronaut "selfie" Astronaut Christopher Cassidy holding a camera while on EVA (Space-walk) NASA has operated several cameras on spacecraft over the course of its history.
In 1980 [20] and 1989, Nikon delivered modified, space capable F3 [21] (big and small version) respectively F4 cameras to NASA, which were used in the Space Shuttle. Nikon's first digital camera (still video camera, with analog storage) was the Nikon Still Video Camera (SVC) Model 1, a prototype which was first presented at photokina 1986.
The Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) is the Hubble Space Telescope's last and most technologically advanced instrument to take images in the visible spectrum. It was installed as a replacement for the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 during the first spacewalk of Space Shuttle mission STS-125 (Hubble Space Telescope Servicing Mission 4) on May 14 ...
Some of the modular lenses that are known to be used on the ISS include several Nikon F and 15 Nikon Z lenses, for cameras such as the D4 and Z9. [ 21 ] [ 13 ] This includes the Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR, the Nikkor 600mm f/4G AF-S VR ED, [ 22 ] the Nikon 800mm f/5.6E FL ED VR, and the Nikon AF-S FX TC-14E III 1.4x Teleconverter .
Two instrumentation packages are installed at the far end of the OBSS. Sensor package 1 consists of the Laser Dynamic Range Imager (LDRI) and an Intensified Television Camera (ITVC). Sensor package 2 is the Laser Camera System (LCS) and a digital camera (IDC). The sensors can record at a resolution of a few millimeters, and can scan at a rate ...
A Special Section of the IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing (July 1999, volume 37, No. 4, p1751-1847) presents the KidSat missions along with the science, engineering and education that were integral to the program. The program allowed middle school students to capture images of Earth using a camera aboard the Space Shuttle. [5]
STS-109 (SM3B) was a Space Shuttle mission that launched from the Kennedy Space Center on 1 March 2002. It was the 108th mission of the Space Shuttle program, [1] the 27th flight of the orbiter Columbia [1] and the fourth servicing of the Hubble Space Telescope. [2]
In order to increase the orbital lifetime of KH-11s, plans existed for refuelling the propulsion module during service visits by the Space Shuttle. [26] It has been speculated that the propulsion module is related to Lockheed's Satellite Support Bus (SSB), which had been derived from the Satellite Control Section (SCS) developed by Lockheed for ...
