I guess ... ask at NASA for ultimate tests.
They destroy like 5-7 cameras than let it go up there.

I used to be at Lockheed.. we would destroy $25,000 pieces of hardware every couple months. I was also a test engineer at a couple other companies... My job was to shake and drop things until they broke, talk about a fun job

Hehe.. not skunk works... that would be fun. I designed cutting edge things such as hinges and brackets for satellites - not exciting by any means.

Hi CVB,

Use to go to the Lockheed surplus outlet. It was amazing what kind of exspensive dodads you could pickup for pennies there! Yes your government tax dollar projects at work! lol
