In addition to the “title page” images”, one other already existing set of images I really like are the panoramas. I have recollected them into this post.
- Never before posted! View from summit trail on volcanic crater remnant around Christchurch
- The “legitimate marginal” weather on the first day we showed up and didn’t launch
- Another summit panorama. This time from atop Castle Rock on Christmas.
- The weather on our “marginal marginal” launch day
- The flight train and parachute
- An all-around view on launch day before inflation
- My main panorama of BLAST and a mostly-inflated balloon
- A similar panorama from the deck, before being forced inside. The balloon is more-mostly-inflated
- All six gondola drivers in the BLAST Ops room
- The all-around whiteness of an overcast day at the south pole
- The view from my seat on the C-17 back to Christchurch
- The C-17 flight deck
Steve, Linnea and I want to thank you for all of the pictures and commentary over the past year, they allowed us to see our son and share a little in the adventure he was living. Tristan will get instructions from us to present you with your choice of a case of beer when he sees you; as a thank you from us.
