Zeppelin: Flying over head and landing at Moffett Field

The Airship Ventures Zeppelin coming back in for a landing after being christened "Eureka".

You can see Hanger 2 once it comes down for the landing; the bed it sleeps in at night.



I had the amazing experience of attending the Airship Ventures Zeppelin naming ceremony at Moffett Field as a guest of Airship Ventures. We were on the tarmac for the ceremony and some of us got to go up in the Zeppelin for a teaser flight. It is an amazing ship and unlike any experience I have ever had. It was almost like being in a large boat, but instead of floating on water we were floating on the air. The craft has an amazing amount of control which allows for some elegant maneuvers.

This was shot on a Canon Powershot that only does 640x480. I did not own my Lumix ZS3 at the time of the naming ceremony at NASA/Moffett Field.
