RELEASE: 02-218
The first five Space Station crews have taken more than
41,000 images of the Earth using digital still cameras, 35
mm cameras, 70 mm cameras and a variety of lenses.
Crewmembers are able to produce higher-resolution
photographs with the high-magnification lenses by learning
to compensate for the relative motion of the Earth below
them as they point their cameras through a specially built
window in the Station's Destiny laboratory.
