I posted this on tiktok and Instagram too, I also want to share on Reddit. I speed painted this during the Livestream, I stopped it during the communications blackout and posted before the crew came back online. I needed a way to deal with all the emotions I was feeling.
If I had more time I would have added Columbia, Apollo 1 , Soyuz 1 & 11, Albert & Ham, and several others. I will do a bigger and more detailed piece for the moon landing in 2028 with everyone in it.
PS I chose Apollo 13 because they managed a safe landing despite their oxygen tank exploding, and that safe landing was really on my mind considering everything.

Ughhh is someone cutting onions ðŸ˜
This is very sweet. I’m sure the astronauts themselves would appreciate this. It’s very true that the beings that come before us stay with us in a way.
Listen I just started my period and I do not need this right now ðŸ˜
AwwwwðŸ˜
There is a beautiful simplicity to all of this and the more I look at it the more emotional it makes me in the best of ways, so thank you for this amazing start to my day!
Love it, though I’m wondering why Apollo 13 has a ghost instead of Space Shuttle Columbia? Just curious, not trying to bring you down.
I love this so much. Well done, OP!
Oh god, it is too early to be crying.
Thank you OP, for sharing your beautiful art.
Super cool. Love the contrast. Thanks for sharing!
Apollo 13 flew back with the lunar module though… thats how they survivedÂ
remove apollo 13 from this image immediately
