The young rocket photographers whose work has been seen by millions – in part thanks to Elon Musk.
It was the middle of the night in Florida. Eighteen-year-old photographer John Kraus was heading to bed after working long hours over the weekend, when the notifications began pouring in.
Mahlmann borrowed a camera around the same time when he joined a NASA social group, going to watch a commercial resupply launch from Florida to the International Space Station. "There was a launch about a month after I started," Kraus said."I grew up around the space program since I was born." Because a rocket launch creates such explosive force at lift-off, people can't stay within the few hundred yards that these remote cameras are positioned. The cameras are left with triggers tuned to the sound of the launch, which, ideally, begin taking photos once the rocket's engines ignite.
"I leave my cameras naked on the pad," Vander Galien said."I usually just look at the weather, and if it's okay then I just put them out there." Kraus echoed Kenniston's excitement, saying that they saw each other shortly after Musk retweeted Kenniston.A rocket launch is a breathtaking spectacle, and all four photographers excitedly recounted their favorite parts of the launch experience.
