How do Spacecraft Photograph the Planets & get the Images Back to Earth?

brilliant.org/CuriousDroid
Ever wondered how we can take those amazing images of the planets from spacecraft and get them back to earth for scientific study and just to see what they really look like.
Well in this video we do just that and see how they developed and some of the challenges they have to solve in order to do so.

6 hours for one image from Jupiter from an old spacecraft like Voyager? My first reaction to that was "wow, that's still quick" :D

[@Pile_of_carbon]

Sounds like surfing for... "art" back in the mid 90s. xD

[@CuriousDroid]

Yes it took a week for the first mariner images of mars

[@Jeffrey314159]

At least the Voyagers had a tape recorders to store images, Pioneer probes X & XI had to transmit their data in real time

I just turned 39 and I remember using a 300 baud modem. That's about 300bit/s on a landline. (Now I have >250Mbps on my mobile phone, so that's almost a million times faster). The fact that things have improved faster on Earth than in space, isn't that surprising. But Cool Worlds Lab have recently released a video where they talk about using the atmosphere of Jupiter to create a high-speed network in space. Really interesting.

[@peterpedunski5400]

FYI: big reason for spaceprobes still using 1980's microcontrollers and photo-sensors is that they are manufactured with bigger sized electrical components which makes them more robust against errors introduced by radiation.

[@black_platypus]

Oh, thank you for this insight!

[@DrewNorthup]

Indeed. Some newer designs (ARM architectures in particular) could be used at the larger transistor sizes, but they'd have to be clocked 1000 times slower (at best) and nifty things like branch prediction would need to be disabled for use in the interplanetary environment. Most things I know of that are out there now are using PPC (PowerPC) chips, like those used in the Apple Macintosh line during the MacOS 9.x era and early MacOS X systems.

[@t_adams]

Way off topic, but why are so many science channels on KZbin so intellectually lazy when it comes to certain subjects or questions asked by subscribers? I have a young nephew who asked two questions in particular that we looked up online and found that although it seems that the questions have been before they have been answered in the laziest fashion possible. The first question "Why can't planes fly into space?", he understands that planes need air for lift and controlled flight and oxygen for the engines to produce thrust, as do most people. Knowing this I understood that what he really means is couldn't someone just add rockets and a reaction control system to a jet and fly into space. But as we looked online including on KZbin all we found was videos, some ridiculously longer than they need to be that said the same basic thing I said in one sentence, the need for air for lift and controlled flight and oxygen to produce thrust. None of them thought to go any farther, and think maybe there was more to the question than what a three-year-old might ask and I would like to know why? The second question he asked that baffles me that no one really answered since it seems both relevant and obvious is "Why don't electric car makers put gasoline or other fuel generators in their cars so while you drive it recharges the battery once the charge gets low and once you have a full charge shut off?". Looking that up we found a lot of things about hybrids and range extenders but nothing about the question asked? It seems that many channels go out of their way to avoid the question altogether and we can't understand why? The question is clearly about a system that is not a range extender hybrid like the BMW Rex or the Chevy Volt or the Prius nor is it about the system the Fisker Karma has where for some reason you have a gas generator that creates electricity that then powers the car when the battery charge runs out but does not recharge the batteries while driving. I am sorry this comment is so long and yes I am asking the same thing to all the science channels I come across so you are not alone, but I just do not understand why so many of them including those that do deep dives into very difficult subjects seems to treat those two questions with what can only be termed intellectual laziness?

[@mspysu79]

The early "Flying Spot" film scanners did not use a computer to process the image, just a slow scan long persistence monitor connected to the receiving electronics, or a wideband data logging recorder(where the image stayed on the screen for seconds or minutes allowing for the image to be built up on the screen then photographed). The Vidicon tube (First called videcon ) was developed in 1950 by RCA for use in portable, low cost and industrial video equipment, variations on that design such as the Saticon and Nuvicon where used into the mid 1980's for broadcast SD and consumer use and until the early 1990's for HD video work. The Imaging CCD was developed at Bell Labs in 1970 with the first color camera using 3 CCD's being developed in 1972. RCA showed a prototype broadcast CCD camera in 1980 the same year they released the first CCD based security camera, the first production broadcast 3 CCD camera was introduced in 1983. .

Thank you for showing how and why image quality has progressed in the last 60 years. From the 1959 image of the far side of the moon to what we see today.

[@WarmWeatherGuy]

We got way more pictures of Uranus and Neptune than expected because during the many years the probes were en-route people back on Earth invented better compression algorithms. We then sent the algorithms to the probes which enabled them to store and send back more images than originally planned.

[@FernandoRodriguez-pj5uh]

Jack D'Ripa Good to know you agree that yours is just an opinion because you can’t provide evidence. You don’t have evidence that contractors worked blindfolded to not know what they were doing (which just shows your ignorance on how an engineering project can work) you don’t have evidence of the actual contracts and grainy images from the 60s, well just so you know HD tv is a thing that we have been using for only a few years now and most vídeo and images from the 60s ARE grainy.

[@2manyIce]

I liked the part about the tried camera tech. New tech does not mean good tech automaticly, it most likely means "no time yet to discover all the glitches".

[@kristenburnout1]

Exactly. And in terms of electronics, modern CPUs are much more sensitive to radiation than older models.

[@Cloudman572]

Agree but glitches tech has value. New tech is great though as it pushes our knowledge even those that sort of fail - Samsung batteries catching fire etc. However, the new tech is fine when you can either patch software, manufacture recall the item or send out service engineers with upgrades. Obviously in general this does not apply to spacecraft millions of miles away. The failure of the original optics in Hubble meant that clever work arounds advanced image processing massively and enhanced tech even on the corrected Hubble upgrade system.

[@cgaccount3669]

It's strange but new camera tech is often worse. In my family for example the pics I have from the 1930s and 40s are better looking than the instamatic crap in the 70s and 80s. And when we started using cell phone cameras the quality again took a huge drop. There are always good cameras but for cost and ease of use we often pick the crappy ones to capture family photos.
