Warching TV shows trying to explain UFO evidence from the space shuttle.

Just boggles my mind how nothing can really be purely clarified in space on objects but on earth we can see anything with a camera.

it's called ratiation.

if you were exposed to JUST the ratiation of space, it would fucking kill you.

so let's just let it affect some digital information without shitting our pants, shall we?

Go to the moon, then try to take a picture of your house. Probably won't come out so clear. Also, until space gets 4g coverage...they will probably try to keep the bandwidth low.

Ok.

But if you brought the same camera you take the perfect picture from the earth of the moon. Why would it be any different from the moon to the earth?

I'll add to that. The charged coupling device (CCD) cameras, are the only ones affected by radiation. Those are also the only images broadcasted back to earth. So as the other poster pointed out: bandwidth is an issue.

The cameras that use chromium metal oxide semiconducters (CMOS) and the new low light Japanese technology, are not affected by radiation. Those images are not broadcasted & I'd put money down, that we are not allowed to see those images.

So the technology is there.

But confined to higher power haha! Love it


Thanks for adding to that
