Exactly 6 years ago, on 28 April 2018, I posted this video of the Antonov 225 leaving Berlin and ILA Berlin - Pioneering Aerospace. I wrote 'Farewell to a flying giant.' I could not have said it better... ☹️

DOWNTOWN von Petula Clark

Bist du allein, von allen Freunden verlassen
Dann geh' in die Stadt
Downtown
Da wo das Leben überall in den Straßen
So viel Lichter hat
Downtown

[ #Memory ] On the trail of the Battle of the #Somme . The Historical Museum of #Peronne . Many historical objects related to #WWI , and amongst them, #aviation is well present. #AvGeek

[ #Memory ] On the trail of the Battle of the #Somme . Trenches make a land fragmented. The village of #Rancourt was in 1916 a strategic point on the German army’s supply line. 3 cemeteries today - French, British, German - remind us of this, as the Chapel of Le Souvenir Français (1923). #WWI

A superb movie for all #SpaceGeeks : 'The Challenge' (Вызов - Vyzov). A 2023 Russian film by Klim Shipenko, the 1st professional one made in #space , onboard the #ISS , with Yulia Peresild and cosmonauts. I recommand, a must see for all scenes filmed aboard the ISS and at #Baikonur .

'In Ungarn lag die Diagonale in der Luft, in Berlin ging sie durch mich hindurch.'

Éva Besnyő (geb. 29. April 1910) kam 1930 nach ihrer Fotografie-Lehre nach Berlin und unterhielt ein eigenes Studio in Wilmersdorf. 1932 zog sie wegen des wachsenden Antisemitismus nach Amsterdam.

April 26 was the International Day of Remembrance of the Chernobyl Disaster. While Berlin has 2 memorials commemorating the tragic event, both are rather obscure and hidden. digitalcosmonaut.com/berlin-chernob…

When the first warm days of spring arrive, you can combine this with a great view over #Berlin 's skyline 🏙️ 🍹 ☀️
