Genesis 1 internal images released

07.25.06

Bigelow Aerospace released yesterday some images from the interior of the Genesis 1 module, including some objects, like photos and playing cards, floating inside. (Some of these objects are blurred, which the company attributes to the low-res imagery returned to date; future missions will have more and better cameras and more high-bandwidth communications.) These photos are similar to the ones that Robert Bigelow showed me during our interview last week, but with the non-Bigelow logos on the interior fuzzed out. As a separate page on the Bigelow site explains, the logos on the online images are pixelated because the company “did not have time to get permission from the various companies for display”. Should such permission be granted, the logos will be revealed.
