Moon Phases: Payload on the IM-1 Lunar Lander
4SPACE's first lunar payload launched the night of Feb 14, 2024 as a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket lifted off with Intuitive Machine's IM-I Lunar Lander. The moon landing initiative has been developed by the scientist and designer 4SPACE CEO Chantelle Baier. Baier approached artist Jeff Koons about an idea to put art on the moon. Their collaboration resulted with Koons creating the 125 unique Moon Phases sculptures, each consisting of three components—a one inch in diameter sculpture that will be installed on the Moon in perpetuity, a larger 15.5 inch replica that will stay on Earth and an NFT photograph of the one-inch sculptures on the Moon. 4SPACE secured the payload on Intuitive Machine's IM-1 manifest, and designed and built the enclosed art cubes that Koon’s sculptures will be placed in. The moon bound case and art were meticulously designed, built and tested to NASA'a rigorous space qualification standards.
