00-010 "We Aim for the Stars"
2000, acrylic on illustration board

In the steamy Florida night, spotlights align on the massive spire of an Apollo moon rocket. The darkness below is populated by alligators, turtles, cranes, and a million insects: our biological lineage dating back four billion years. Although these creatures can not comprehend what their ape cousins are up to, why all those lights are shining like moonlight, the truth of the matter is that this is an epochal moment. We have been bound to our planet before; tonight, we aim for the stars.
