Description
On May 6, 1937, the celebrated airship Hindenburg caught fire during its landing in Lakehurst, New Jersey, killing 36 people. A German zeppelin, the Hindenburg was the largest airship ever built. It made several transatlantic journeys, offering passengers comfort and luxury during the years of the Great Depression. What was supposed to be a routine landing on the first transatlantic flight of the season ended in tragedy. Present at the air-field were many journalists and cameramen, who recorded the tragedy for the entire world and captured the indelible sounds and images for generations to come. The Hindenburg disaster effectively ended the practice of using dirigibles to transport passengers.
