Untitled (Minuteman II missile in truck, technician preparing for transport in Transport Erector Vehicle, Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota)
1992

A person in camouflage military attire is partially visible while climbing into a large, circular opening surrounded by what appear to be film reels. The environment suggests a projection room, with various pieces of equipment and warning signs on the walls. The person's head and torso are not visible, implying they are moving through the opening into another space.
