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. |
