Section Two: Astronaut Artifacts
Astronaut Multi-Signed Canvas
During its flight, the Galileo spacecraft returned images of the Earth and Moon which were combined to generate this view of where astronauts have explored.
The above image was printed on an 18 by 24" canvas, on which the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation collected the signatures of 22 astronauts, including:
Charles Bolden
Vance Brand
Dan Brandenstein
Scott Carpenter
Jerry Carr
Bob Crippen
Walt Cunningham
Charlie Duke
Gordon Fullerton
Owen Garriott
Edward Gibson

Hoot Gibson
Richard Gordon
Fred Haise
Rick Hauck
Jack Lousma
James Lovell
Ken Mattingly
Bruce Melnick
Edgar Mitchell
Loren Shriver
Al Worden |
A limited number of canvases were signed. The Astronaut Scholarship Foundation may add more autographs to this canvas prior to the auction closing. This page will be kept updated as possible.
The above photograph does not do justice to the quality of the physical canvas, which is much more bold and colorful.
