EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) as it taxis past Hangar 1, a historic dirigible hangar at Moffett Field. Taken on January 14,2008, during SOFIA's inaugural visit to Ames Research Center, this image showcases the remarkable fusion of cutting-edge technology and timeless architecture. The SOFIA airborne observatory stands proudly in the foreground, an awe-inspiring feat of engineering that combines a modified Boeing airliner with state-of-the-art infrared astronomy instruments. Its sleek design and advanced systems make it a symbol of innovation in aerospace research. In stark contrast to the modern aircraft is Hangar 1, an iconic structure dating back to the 1930s. This historical building adds depth and character to the composition while serving as a reminder of aviation's rich heritage. Set against a clear blue sky on a sunny day, this color image highlights both the beauty and functionality of these scientific facilities. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on these impressive structures dedicated to expanding our understanding of space. Photographed by Stocktrek Images, this stunning print perfectly encapsulates the intersection between science and history. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge about our universe.
