see things.
They were small; there ' s no question
that things don ' t get any bigger when you ' re
looking down at them, but in my opinion things
were much clearer.
I could see with a higher
detail than I could when I fly over in a normal
airplane,as far as the object itself being
clearly defined.
I also noticed this at night
when I looked down on it .
In the clear stretches
the city lights were much finer defined than the
lights are in a city when you're flying over at
40 000 feet. Things are small but have a much
higher definition.
I think it would be
interesting to find out in-mu- photographs the
degree of resolution that you have.
I feel that
the resolution, if you have the proper contrast,
would go down to 50 feet or below.
Yes.
I ' d agree with you there.
Geographically,
there were just so many things that we could see.
I think that we took pictures of most of the
things that we thought would be interesting.
I 'm dying to look at those pictures.
Me, too!
I agree with Jim that if you look at a city,
particularly if you look at a city in a desert
