Here it is…4SPACE’s art cube has officially landed on the Moon…with a photo to prove it!

Albeit Odysseus tilted over on its side the art cube protecting Jeff Koons’ Moon Phases project has completed a success mission. 4SPACE is delighted to have conceived and delivered the first art gallery to the Moon!

Jeff Koons: Moon Phases

We did it! This is so incredible! A big thank you to everyone who has supported my journey and a special mention to the team from Intuitive Machines for sticking the landing! We officially have artwork on the Moon!

In just over an hour we should have touchdown on the Moon! As you can see I’m slightly nervous…3+ years of hard work has gone into this 😬

At 4:24PM ET today my art gallery is scheduled to touchdown on the Moon! So exciting!!! You can watch it live-streamed here - https://go.nasa.gov/49Dw6bW
UPDATE: IM-1 is doing another lap of the Moon’s orbit. Estimated landing time now 6:24PM ET.

This photo was taken less than 48 hours ago of the IM-1 lunar landing carrying the 4SPACE payload in lunar orbit. It is orbiting the Moon approximately 60 miles (93 km) from the Moon's surface.

To the Moon with Love has been out baseline motto from the beginning of this project, as we know it’s important to develop everything with the lens of sustainability and impact to the lunar environment. We ensure that our art brings love and harmony to the Moon, reflecting not only our commitment to space exploration but also our dedication to preserving the beauty of the celestial bodies we explore. In crafting our installations and artistic expressions, we employ cutting-edge technologies and materials that have minimal impact on the lunar landscape.

Sustainability is not just a buzzword for us; it's a guiding principle that informs every decision we make. Our team of engineers and artists collaborate to design structures that blend seamlessly with the lunar environment, leaving no trace behind. To the Moon with Love is not just a project; it's a vision for a sustainable and harmonious future beyond our planet. We aim to inspire others to approach space exploration with a mindset rooted in ecological responsibility.

As we extend our reach into the cosmos, we carry the values of environmental stewardship with us, ensuring that our presence in space leaves a positive legacy for future generations.

Our commitment to love goes beyond the artistic realm; it extends to the technologies we use and the methods we employ. We actively research and develop advancements that minimize waste, energy consumption, and environmental impact.

By pushing the boundaries of innovation, we strive to set new standards for sustainable space exploration. To the Moon with Love is a testament to the power of creativity and technology working hand in hand to create a positive impact on the universe.

As we journey into the unknown, guided by the principles of love and sustainability, we invite others to join us in this cosmic endeavor, fostering a shared commitment to caring for the cosmic wonders that grace our night sky.

4SPACE's art gallery is in space! These pictures were taken today from the Intuitive Machines IM-1 lunar lander above Earth. You can see the 4SPACE art gallery containing the Jeff Koons Moon Phases moons on the left just behind the payload in the foreground. What a view!

Witnessing the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket successfully launch on Valentines Day 2024 carrying a payload of Jeff Koons artwork coordinated by my company 4SPACE was a truly incredible feeling. It marked years of hard work, dedication, persistence and patience to put the first ever art gallery into orbit d

My art gallery has officially detached from the SpaceX rocket and is bound for the Moon about the IM-1 lunar lander! This marks a significant milestone in the journey to the Moon as the most challenging aspects are now complete...all being well in 8 days time we should be landing safely on the Moon. I encourage you to watch the video...it is so beautiful to see - https://x.com/SpaceX/status/1758022464326840739?s=20

125 miniature steel Moon Phases sculptures

The sculptures are housed in a cube designed by 4SPACE to protect the Jeff Koons artwork. This project has taken more than 3 years from concept to integration due to the significant levels of testing required to satisfy our NASA safety protocols.

Outdated

Sacha Jafri's mission in February 2024 unfortunately did not succeed. Their lunar lander did not make it to the Moon. I was rooting for them to succeed.

Accurate

I can vouch for the amount of time it takes to complete testing. Putting objects into space is a time consuming, costly exercise yet I consider it critical to the evolution of humanity.
