Passion for Pixels: Send digital signals to friends!

Did you know when you look at a photo of a planet in space, you’re really looking at a set of numbers? Remote-sensing satellites take pictures and gather data that is transmitted to the ground as digital signals, or sets of numbers. Then computer software converts the numbers into color images.
