- I am involved with a group of UCLA students who are attempting to
- build an amateur rocket capable of climbing to 200,000ft and transmitting
- back images to the ground. I would appreciate any input anyone could give
- me on what type of imaging system would be the best. I would have liked to
- use a videocamera, but the people working on telemetry say that it would be
- too difficult to transmit back that much info. I therefore need to find
- some sort of camera, the lighter and smaller the better, that can take a
- series of snapshots (at least 8 bit resolution) that can be transmitted
- and received on the ground. Any info that you can give me would be greatly
- appreciated. Thank you
