About the work: This painting is of the Psyche spacecraft’s multispectral imager and X-band high gain antenna. The two instruments are on different sides of the spacecraft, so a split image was chosen to demonstrate the two instruments collecting data. We are not sure what to expect from Psyche, so the information gathering process is still continuing.The painting is also meant to be changed and/or built upon with other canvases, or anything else the imagination holds.
