I have no knowledge of rocket launchers...only Pratt & Whitney aircraft launching.

It looks like the Moonliner at Disneyland. I want that in my backyard!!!

so not a soap dispenser then? great pic tho

The graphic border treatment around the photos interferes with the striking beauty of the images, in my opinion.

Very cool pic - I was just visiting Usedom last month and believe I drove right by that building (which if it's the one I'm thinking of it's in the town and not the museum proper) and recall thinking there might be a good pic - indeed there is. Many thanks!

Checkmate......

i love everything about this picture from the rocky ground to the greenery to what Lies beyond!

All the beautiful hues of green,and the square opening with light makes this shot very appealing,really like this!

Love how you captured the light coming through the windows, the ceiling, and especially on the tips of the leaves!

Wondering if you can see any signs of the old work tunnels...I think they were sealed off during the War. All those poor people and the suffering they went through is unimaginable.

are those railroad tracks towards the bottom of the photo?

Wow...I can't believe you've been here. And to think: Werner von Braun worked here for Hitler and then went on to found our very own NASA.

Those "gashes" are where the concrete spalled due to the rusting of the rebar within. Once in contact with moisture, they rust and expand, popping the concrete off. But of course 'gashes" is a more imaginative viewing of it!

I've come back to this gallery a couple of times, and each time I initially think the title to this shot is "Radical Gate."

Either way....
