Last night in painting class my father showed me a picture of the spy satellites that Kodak developed cameras for. I remember at some point he couldn’t tell us exactly what he did at work because it was top secret but these “Corona” and “Big Bird” projects have been declassified now there is quite a bit of information online about them. My father drew me a little diagram of how the satellites captured shots of Russia and then dropped the film package as they orbited so that a plane flying below could snag it and bring it in for processing. Pretty hi-tech stuff for a company who’s stock is now selling for a dollar a share.
