I was never too big on photographic urban exploring, most of my attempts ended before they even started. I guess I was just too afraid of being caught.

This is were Lana Sator stands apart from most of us (read: me). She single-handed snucked into an active military Russian rocket factory and went for a stroll.

What’s surprising about all this is that she found no one in sight, apart from a couple security cameras, she was quite free to walk around and snap this beautiful photos.

Maybe it’s my geeky me surfacing again but I can’t stop to think that she just entered an deactivated Death Star, or one of those sub-levels where they secretly keep Akira.

Be sure to visit Lana’s live journal (in russian) for more photos and some threatening letters from the Russian government advising her not to post this photos. If this doesn’t tag you as badass, I don’t know what will…
