The "Aggregat 4" missile, better known as the V2 rocket (V2 = Vergeltungswaffe 2 = Vengeance Weapon 2) was the first long-range guided ballistic missile.
During testing in Peenemünde it was also the first vehicle reaching outer space by flying above the Kármán line (defined by the FAI at 100 km altitude) with the vertical test launch of MW 18014 on 20 June 1944 reaching an apogee of 176 km. Actual launch location was a tiny island named Greifswalder Oie.
This one here is actually just a replica standing in the Historisch-Technisches Museum Peenemünde (Historical Technical Museum Peenemünde).

Sometimes, in difficult waters, we may all need a little extra guidance.👍

When the light of the day passes, the Cape May Lighthouse guides the weary fisherman back home. What is *your* guiding light when the world gets dark?
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
well our guide seemed relaxed, he was more interested in texts than anything else... if only we knew if he was guiding the shadows to us or showing our way out... oh... it would be so much more comforting if the exit was up rather than down... was crystal city above us or below?
Great guide and great alpinist.
Here leading the 3rd pitch of the classic Rebuffat-Baquet on the south face of Aiguille du Midi, on one of the most beautiful granite of the Alps.
Unfortunately often difficult to take a real camera on our climbs...
...which I copied/painted in homage to Winslow Homer ...

The sun will guide you, especially if it is painted on the tree. You may not notice at first as I didn't notice. But it is there, just give it a second look. Sometimes it is all about the second look, and the light doesn't always come from the sun on the sky.

Actually I didn't want to post any photos while I'm on holiday, but since today's topic is a last greeting for Hans Holt, longtime member and admin of Macro Mondays Group, it was of course a matter of honour 😉 These stars shall shine for you, Hans. Rest in peace and may the light be with you.
