News people asked that question. The answer was that the detail would not be helpful to assess the damage.
I have to wonder what the quality of any pics the AF took was? Why were they taking pics and what in particular where they photgraphing? Do they take pics of all space shuttle flights? If so, who requires them or requested them to? Can the public see these pics?
For some reason, I wouldn't think the AF would take low quality pics, what would the purpose of that be ?
These are questions I'd like someone to ask the folks at NASA.
