The final image taken by one of my 80D workhorses, having survived 50+ launches at multiple launch pads over the years. Terrifying. This remote 📸 placed approximately .25 miles from the pad for the historic first test flight of Starship.

Starship got the best of one of my remotes set outside the pad. DSLR was ripped right off the tripod which remained staked to the ground. Lens found 10 feet away. SD card found 15 feet away after being ejected from the tumbling body. No hope for cameras inside pad. Damn…
