NASA SERIES: GALILEO
— The NASSA Series: art inspired by outer space. Each final painting was inspired by a photo posted to the NASA Instagram account*.
— “Our Galileo spacecraft took this false-color mosaic, constructed from a series of 53 images, as the spacecraft zoomed over the northern regions of our Moon on December 7, 1992. The spacecraft was on its way to Jupiter. The mosaic helps us see variations in parts of the Moon's northern hemisphere. Bright pinkish areas are the lunar highlands, including the ones surrounding the oval lava-filled Crisium impact basin toward the bottom of the picture. Blue-to-orange shades indicate ancient volcanic lava flows. To the left of Crisium is the dark blue Mare Tranquillitatis, where Apollo 11 landed. It’s richer in titanium than the green and orange areas above it. Thin mineral-rich soils associated with relatively recent meteorite or asteroid impacts are represented by light blue colors; the youngest craters have prominent blue rays extending from them.
