Art And The Exploration of Space Lecture
Apollo Lunar Module from Astronaut Glory digital painting
Tomorrow night, Friday October 9, I'll be giving my presentation Art And The Exploration of Space at a meeting of the Skokie Valley Astronomers. Space art is definitely a subject I enjoy talking about as it was space art that got me interested in art and in part space exploration. With respect to space exploration, it was the combination of space art, science fiction, and space exploration itself that got me interested in space exploration to the extent that I became actively involved in promoting both robotic and human space exploration.

The Illustration
To illustrate this post I used a section of one of my digital painting tributes to the Apollo missions. The section shows the Apollo Lunar Module. For details about this digital painting see
