It's not every day an Airship is born, this photo captures the moment better then any I have seen so far, and also reminds me of those old photos we would see of airships being built during the first age of airships around the turn of the 20th century.
Thinking about it now, this airship has an uncanny resemblance to that of the Hindenburg. It looks like it's made out of the same materials and it even has the same red color on the lettering "Dragon Dream" which I assume is the crafts name, although I have been told that is not the case.
Maybe this is because airship technology has been stuck in 1936 for so long that when it got picked up again that's all they had to work with; The Technology really got hindered by the Hindenburg (chuckle ^_^)! Thus, maybe it's not surprising that the technology in 2013 looks the same as that of where it left off in history in 1936.
