Ian's Pictures from Roton/ATV Rollout
Arrival and Pre-Rollout Pictures

Before you can see all this, you have to get there. From San Jose/Silicon Valley (at the southern end of the Bay Area) to Mojave (in Southern California's Mojave Desert) is at least a 5-hour drive, where the speed limits are usually 65-70 mph.

	From the parking area at 8:30AM on rollout day, the Rotary "high bay" hangar containing the Roton/ATV is the building on the right. On the left is a permanently-parked Boeing 747.
	This is sneaking in a photo while Rotary's crews have temporarily opened one of the large doors of the high bay to move some equipment through.
	Another view of the high bay
	The Rotary Rocket Company logo on the top front of the high bay
	Inside the low-bay hangar, booths are set up for attendees. In the center bottom of the photo, ERPS President Kevin Bollinger smiles for the camera.
	Food (bagels, donuts, etc) in the foreground, booths in the background
	Another angle on the food, shows a few more of the people who had arrived that early
