London-based Chinese artist Jacky Tsai painted the exterior of a ZQ-2E Y2 rocket, which launched into space in May from China's Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The project, titled "Chang'e Flying to the Moon," was a collaboration with commercial space company LandSpace, reimagining the Chinese moon goddess in a cosmic context. Tsai worked with engineers to apply aerospace-grade paint, avoiding colors like green that could interfere with tracking systems. He had planned to recover separated rocket parts for a sculptural installation or charity auction, but all painted sections were incinerated upon re-entry.
