 Monday morning September 19, 2005 at Zhukovsky Air Base about 50 Km outside of Moscow.  Zhukovsky is a former, very secret base that is now open to adventure tourists like me looking for something different.  This picture was taken just outside the building where I would have my medical exam, be fitted in a flight suit, briefed on the flight and given instructions concerning the helmet, oxygen and assorted other things that only barely registered at the time.
