EOSSAD.GIF - In an moment of shear boredom and with the recent arrivial of a new image processing package (Adobe Photoshop 3.0), I came up with this interesting picture.
If you're interested in such things, I've written a brief synopsis of the creation process of this picture. CLICK HERE for that overview.

APA.GIF - Taken during EOSS-15 this is a view of Centennial Airport (APA) from the balloon at approximately 24,000 feet altitude. The airport is located in the center of the picture. The road crossing the picture from left to right at the bottom is Parker Road. Although hard to make out, the road that intersects Parker and goes west towards the mountains and north of (or right of) Centennial Airport is Arapahoe Avenue. For those of you familiar with the area, this may help place the picture. (121K)
