Video of Sunday morning flight attempt

10.28.07

Here’s a video I shot of Armadillo Aerospace’s first leg of their attempt Sunday morning to win the Lunar Lander Challenge. Due to poor camerawork on my part the lander goes out of frame for a few seconds during its descent. You can see the lander hover for the final seconds of its flight to reach the 90-second mark; it appears it’s on the ground because of intervening terrain, but it’s still in the air.
