Michael Ventura Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 A good friend of mine is the chief photographer for NASA and last week was photographing the launch of the Space X Falcon 9 rocket and well things didn't go so well for one of his remote camera setups. An Australian news outlet did a piece on it.

Michael Ventura Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 I think the U.S. Government was the insurer since they own his cameras 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
