Flight from Las Vegas to Orange County, gliding over the first storm of the season to overtake the Southwest.
This is a beautiful but familiar sight by now, yet every so often, it strikes me anew just how extraordinary it is. 100 years ago, a view like this would have been literally unimaginable to the common man. Even after the first commercial flights started running, none would have flown at an altitude that could have provided a tableau like this.
Later this week, if all goes well, we'll be launching equipment that are the first steps for taking humans to Mars. I wonder what extraordinary photos future generations will capture that would be, in their eyes, just as mundane as this picture is to us now.
