artist jacky tsais painting launches into space literally 2665051
Chinese artist Jacky Tsai has created a painting on an orbital rocket, produced in collaboration with commercial space company LandSpace. The artwork, titled ZQ-2E Y2 (Zhuque-2 Enhanced, Flight 2), was rendered in aerospace-grade paint using advanced methods coordinated with engineers, and launched into space earlier this year. Inspired by the Chinese folktale “Chang’e Flying to the Moon,” the design remained visible as the rocket approached the stratosphere, marking what Tsai calls the first fully art-painted rocket to enter Earth’s orbit.
