Scott Andrews, a photographer and technical consultant for Nikon and later Canon, who covered NASA launches since Gemini and continued through the end of the shuttle program, died on August 27, 2024. He was 69.From his son, Philip (also a launch photographer), via Facebook: Scott pioneered a remote trigger technology that made it possible to capture images of spacecraft launches from impossibly close. A testament to his giving spirit, Scott relished the opportunity to share the solutions he created with others, collaborating with other photographers, NASA representatives, and documentarians. His work took him from presidential inaugurations to Olympic games to spacecraft launches from Cape Canaveral, Florida and Baikonur, Kazakhstan. Scott, along with Bill Ingalls, was one of the first U.S. photographers to witness the Russian Space Program in 1995. |
