Why are the new panels of a different color than the other ones?
What is the ISS magnitude at now?
And as amazing as those pics are, I have heard the DoD can do much
better. I recall during the first Space Shuttle mission in 1981, when
they were worried about some of the heat tiles having fallen off, that
the military had cameras to do some close-up investigation of the
Space Shuttle. They commented that these same devices could
count the bolts on a Soyuz.
How possible is this and what can they do with today's technology?
