re: Kind of reminds me of this photograph
I remember watching a film of the Nasa mission control room as that spacecraft was hurtling towards the lunar surface. It was our first time there! The engineers' eyes were riveted on the screen as one image after another flashed up, each closer than the last, until the last one filled the screen with static on impact. Every man in the room stood up simultaneously and erupted into spontaneous applause. And so did I.
