My Mind's Eye


My Mind's Eye has only been flown twice so far (LDRS 18 in Argonia KS in 1999 and in Socorro, NM in 2004) but the results were impressive.







 This photograph was taken at LDRS in 1999 and I like to call it "Heads Up!".







 Launch field for LDRS 18 in Argonia KS.



















 One of the goals of this flight was to achieve this photograph. I wanted to get a profile of the booster coming down on its parachute.







 The camera in the base of the payload section captured this spectacular shot of the booster deploying its parachute.







 I Flew My Mind's Eye in 2004 in New Mexico with good results. This shot shows the booster seperating from the payload section moments before the booster chute opens.







 This take off shot in New Mexico shows the power of the M1939. The dust is blown with such force that it likes a mini explosion is taking place under the rocket.
