Like a rocket needs a bicycle
India’s rocket program in 1966, by Henri Cartier-Bresson (thanks, Turbanhead):
Where it is today:
… [ISRO was] bringing back a satellite that they had put in orbit 12 days earlier with the help of a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle… from Sriharikota. The shuttlecock-shaped satellite, called the Space Capsule Recovery Experiment (SRE-I), was to splash down in the Bay of Bengal, about 140 km east of Sriharikota and the Coast Guard was to recover it… the deviation in landing was just 20 km from the designated area.
