The airship (1) is suspended on cables (2) coupled to winches (3). Suspended from the airship is a platform (6) that carries a video camera (5) on a pivot mounting that can be controlled remotely from a ground station (8) via a communication cable (7). Alternatively a laser may be mounted on the platform to provide a laser show.
