EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, the Zeppelin LZ-126 (Zr.3), also known as the "Babe," is shown making a test flight over Berlin, Germany, in October 1924. This particular Zeppelin was one of the largest and most advanced airships of its time, and it was about to embark on a significant journey as part of the war reparations following World War I. Before its departure for the United States, the LZ-126 flew over the city of Berlin one last time. The image captures the majesty and grandeur of the airship as it gracefully glides through the sky, casting a long shadow over the city below. The airship's distinctive shape and the contrasting clouds create a stunning visual display. As a symbol of German technological prowess, the Zeppelin LZ-126 was a source of national pride. However, its departure marked the end of an era for the German airship industry, which had been severely impacted by the war. During this test flight, the Zeppelin dropped a message in the Konigsplatz, a large public square in Munich, as a farewell gesture to the German people. The message read, "Heute Abend um 18 Uhr startet der LZ-126 in Richtung Amerika" (Tonight at 6 pm, the LZ-126 starts towards America). This message was a poignant reminder of the airship's impending departure and the changing times. The Zeppelin LZ-126 went on to make history as the first German airship to cross the Atlantic Ocean, and it arrived in the United States in January 1925. It was later used by the US Navy as a transport and observation aircraft until it was destroyed by a fire in 1931. This photograph captures a moment in history when the future was uncertain, but the past was still making its mark.
