Ah, man, I always love your space paintings. I remember reading about the Lunokhods in my books, I loved those little rovers. In the space race, all this was really competitive, but looking back from today every space first was a step into the cosmos for all humankind, not just for launching country.

Great work on the lunar landscape!! The lunar horizon is smooth and rolling in the photos I have seen, not craggy like some of the early SF artists used to imagine. And the horizon is crisp, like you painted it, because there is no atmosphere to blur faraway objects- so it can be hard for astronauts to tell if a rock is only a few meters tall and nearby or two kilometers away and larger than a house. The rover looks great, too. Maybe someday these old landing sites will be cordoned-off memorial locations, where people come to visit and see the earliest robot pioneers into space...
