Update: 2022-07-26
Description
If you want a taste of just how profoundly the digital age changed photography, consider this: more pictures will be taken worldwide in the next two minutes, than were taken during the first 150 years of photography.
In this episode, Steven Sasson remembers how he tinkered with a weird new image sensing technology called CCDs to invent the world's first digital camera. Then we’ll hear from his good friend Eric Fossum who explains how he miniaturized that technology to help NASA explore the solar system.
