Stardust reentry, Wendover. I moved the camera as the long exposure
started and the heat shield's bright streak shows that jiggle. When the
vibrations died the dimmer ion trail was recorded, since the glow persisted
after Stardust moved on. Where the spacecraft emerged from behind the
structure, you can see the ion trail separately from the heat shield glow.
The structure is an old control tower at the airfeld.
