Are full size/larger images available somewhere? 1920x1280px seems low.

Edit: Found 'em: https://images.nasa.gov/search?page=1&media=image&yearStart=...

I don’t see TIFFs, so I assume the originals were JPEG.

The external shots seem to just be from the GoPro strapped to a solar panel. Didn't seen anything that looked like the shots from the Nikons onboard. Was hoping for a couple, but I know I'm just being greedy wanting all the pics

edit: exif data shows some are from a Nikon. I just want to see them all!!! My greedy line still plays

It looks like changing the `~large` in the image filename to `~orig` gets you the full size versions.

I was hoping that they used a medium format camera like Hasselblad or something for the larger pics... but no such luck. I guess weight might have been one factor.

Still, the pics are mind blowing. Out of this world, tbh

To be fair they "only" have a 20 Mbps laser uplink from the capsule to Earth, and that's shared between all the systems and uploading images/video.
