Here is the first set of restored photos of the original BlinkenArea-Camp from the year 1903. Unfortunately the quality of the pictures is very poor, but in those days they did not have better photographic equipment (UPDATE: With state-of-the-art image processing technology - such as Gimp - it was possible to greatly enhance picture quality). The description of the pictures were restored from available historical documents.%BR%%BR% Right after these photographs had been taken, the crew left planet earth with a spaceship to set off on a jouney through time into the next decade (UPDATE: Seems they came back for visits in subsequent years).
