      Space imaging TIFFs of huge size are pretty common, really.

      I have a large collection on a hard drive, somewhere. Come to think of it, I got most of those when I had dial-up. 😀

      What is more frightening to me is 300 MB compressed JPEG images. As TIFFs, they would be monstrous.

      The engineering drawings are much more interesting.

      My opinion… Your mileage may require you to send me coffee…

        Good stuff.

        I used to be able to get hard copies of NASA briefs and stuff, way back. And the publicly released stuff (books, posters, whatever) was pretty cool. But engineering drawings would be [i]awesome[/i]. Crap. I used to know a couple NASA engineers, as well as people from contractors in the private sector.

        Good on Daddy. :-bd I’d send you coffee if I could. 🙂
