Kodak On Mars

Yahoo: Kodak image sensors are on board of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO)launched almost 3 years ago on August 12, 2005.

Daily weather data for Mars is collected by the orbiter using the Mars Color Imager (MARCI) based on 1MP KAI-1001 sensor. The orbiter’s Context Camera (CTX) is based on KLI-5001, a 5,000-pixel linear CCD device that scans the surface of the planet as the orbiter passes overhead.
