As I understand the article, the new footage is NOT the long-misplaced slow-scan data tape.

For that purpose, Ranger 7 was equipped with six slow-scan television cameras, an optical sensor, a high-gain communications antenna and solar panels to provide power.

While this seems like a good move for those using faxes for moblogging -- or, as I like to refer to it, "Xerographicoteleblogging" -- doesn't a significant portion of the Xerographicoteleblogger community use tools like slow-scan TV or telex?

It was a slow-scan device that attached to the Apple game I/O socket, and produced black-and-white images in about five seconds.

Attempts at using normal telephony networks to transmit slow-scan video, such as the first systems developed by AT&T, failed mostly due to the poor picture quality and the lack of efficient video compression techniques.

Image intensifiers have a reduced intrascene dynamic range compared to a slow-scan CCD camera and it is difficult to obtain more than a 256-fold intensity range (8 bits) from an intensified CCD camera.

Thermal noise from the photocathode as well as electron multiplication noise from the microchannel plate reduce the signal-to-noise in an intensified CCD camera to below that of a slow-scan CCD.

For applications involving digital deconvolution, the detector of choice is a cooled, scientific-grade, slow-scan camera capable of producing a high resolution, 14-bit to 16-bit image.

Some control over the read-out rate as well as the size of the pixel that constitutes a sensor is permitted by slow-scan CCD cameras.
