The great Hindenburg circled over the field as Captain Pruss slowed the vessel and descended through the stormy cloud deck at 600 ft (180 m). As he moved his ship towards the mooring mast, Pruss made a sharp left turn and began dropping water ballast from the stern to lighten the tail. By 7:21, the Hindenburg was still some 300 ft (90 m) high and about 1,000 ft (305 m) away as the ship slowly closed in on the mooring mast.
