Low Orbit Satellite Imaging Clarity.mp3

Image capturing of satellites orbiting the earth is set to be revolutionised with new images showing 60% more clarity.

Trishil Kyle Dahya spoke to University of Canterbury Associate Professor Steve Waddell about the work he has pioneered with the Computational Design and Adaption Research Group to capture clear images of low earth orbiting satellites and debris. Topics such as the funding stage of the project, as well as the use of Adaptive Optics to minimise atmospheric turbulence, and more form the basis of the conversation.
