A 1930s Technicolor film frame of a shaved-headed woman test pilot in a blue uniform on the wing of a red rocket plane in a bright sunlit hangar.

An experimental rocket-plane test pilot straps a finned chrome flight helmet under her chin while stepping onto the polished aluminum wing of a scarlet fuselage. Shot in 1930s Three-Strip Technicolor, the frame bursts with saturated primaries and high-key studio light, while overexposed hangar windows bloom into the room with a soft diffusion-filter glow on the highlights.
