电荷耦合器件(CCD)的出现彻底改变了地面和地球轨道上的天文成像,CCD对可见光和近红外光子的几乎完全线性响应使得能够更精确地测量各种天文目标,包括从航天器上观察太阳系天体的表面和大气。哈勃太空望远镜和伽利略号和火星探路者号等星际探测任务传回的壮观CCD图像吸引了全世界公众的注意,证明了数字成像技术的成熟。此外,CCD相机在业余天文学家的工具中几乎已经司空见惯,可以从世界各地的后院获得专业质量的图像。
The advent of charge-coupled devices (CCDs) has revolutionized astronomical imaging, both from the ground and Earth orbit.The almost perfectly linear response of CCDs to visible and near-infrared photons has enabled more accurate measurement of a wide variety of astronomical targets, including the surfaces and atmospheres of solar system objects as viewed from spacecraft. The spectacular CCD images returned by the Hubble Space Telescope and interplanetary missions such as Galileo and Mars Pathfinder have captured the attention of the public worldwide and are a testament to the maturity of digital imaging technology. In addition, CCD cameras have become almost commonplace among the tools of amateur astronomers, allowing professional-quality images to be acquired from backyards all over the world.
