The first photographs
of the baby rockets are his.
He was in Sannine as well.
Harry was there for all the launches:
Cedar 2B, Cedar 2C
Cedar 3 and 4...
by L'Orient and Al Jarida were his.
Images that adorned front-pages
with the success of the project...
still Harry's.
"Harry the Horse"
traveled the world
witnessed revolutions
and wars, met celebrities.
The images of the 60's
and 70's he shows us
are imbued
with the spirit of the era.
They are moving and linked to us.
While those of the rockets
have no trace in our imagination.
What is history's memory?
Harry is happy to hear that Manoug
kept traces of his photographs.
Like many photographers
he lost most of his negatives
during the civil wars.
He had not seen the images
When you read in the eyes
of these youngsters
how happy they are
with their project and its success
you're so proud of them.
It's amazing how this project, in
an Armenian university, evolves.
It is endowed with a spaceport
in the heights of Dbayeh.
The army is participating in it
the State, subsidizing it.
Still, it is
at Haigazian University's lab
that students continue mixing fuel
fabricating it from scratch
with their own hands.
It's seems even more
unbelievable today
that Rev. John Markarian, head of
the Protestant university he founded
did not halt the momentum
that went beyond them.
Now 93 years old
John lives in Pittston, Pennsylvania
with Inge, whom he met in Beirut
where he lived for over 25 years.
We didn't go wrong
with the measurements
but with the trajectory.
We took an ordinary map
to study our position
and the rocket's trajectory.
And we noticed
that the South of Cyprus
was on the same level as Syria.
From Dbayeh
if we had launched
the rocket straight
it would have fallen in Cyprus.
So we decided to deviate it slightly.
But the degree of deviation
was obviously not enough.
our Ambassador in Cyprus, Ghossein
saying that the British Ambassador
had called him
Lebanon which had fallen near a boat.
That could have sparked
a catastrophe.
At that time, in Lebanon
No radar was capable of following
a rocket at that speed and distance.
When I was in England, I trained
which used transmissions
from different fixed stations.
The resulting triangulation
of pulse frequencies and phases
enabled us to track
and locate a boat.
So I had the idea
to use the same model
to track the rocket.
And this is what we did.
Some Arab scientists who founded the
Association for Spacecraft Studies
