Methods and Means of Stereoscopic Photography On-Board Manned Spacecrafts: A Historical Overviewe

This paper presents a historical overview of the use of cinematographic, photo, and video devices for stereoscopic photography during manned space flights in the period from 1961 to 2011. The methods for obtaining stereoscopic images during orbital flights as well as the relevant technical solutions are reviewed. The paper describes the samples of space photographic equipment that have been most important from the standpoint of technical evolution, the main results obtained in the course of in-orbit scientific experiments, and the conclusions based on the experience of using stereoscopic cameras on-board Soviet / Russian manned spacecrafts and orbital stations.
