EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Victor Crawshaw, we are transported back to the SBAC Farnborough air display on the 10th of September in 1970. Standing before us is none other than Wernher Von Braun, the renowned former German rocket scientist who played a pivotal role in shaping history. With his signature serious expression and eyes gazing upwards towards the sky, Von Braun's presence exudes an aura of scientific brilliance and determination. Dressed impeccably in a jacket, shirt, and tie that epitomize the fashion trends of the 1970s, he stands as a symbol of both scientific progress and international collaboration during the Cold War era. Von Braun's legacy is undeniably intertwined with two significant milestones in human exploration: first as one of the masterminds behind Germany's V2 rocket used to bombard London during World War II; secondly as the visionary creator behind America's Saturn V rocket that propelled astronauts to set foot on the moon during NASA's Apollo missions. This photograph encapsulates not only Von Braun's remarkable achievements but also serves as a reminder of humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and our relentless pursuit to conquer new frontiers. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of how science transcends borders and unites us all in our quest for understanding our place within this vast universe.
