The last silver print of this went to Neil Armstrong ---  after he landed on the moon -- the Soviets invited him to Moscow ....he couldn't have a camera with him in those days  >  to snap a shot of the Russian Sputnik on top of this obelisk :-)  SO > I graciously handed him one back about 5 years ago.

;-)sense of speed >  the whole reason for the designers concept  -- pay tribute to the first spaceship ~!  .. SO .. I spent sometime walking around to find the angle > remember I only have a square format  /normal lens.  ,,,
