taulun:pwhale6:(pieces from 2020 which i hold really close to my heart) on july 31, 1999 eugene shoemaker, an american geologist, became the first and only person whose ashes were carried to the moon. he had a dream to fly there once, yet it came true only two years after his death.nightwish released a song about him in 2020, and it touched me deeply. inspired by its ending, i wanted to portray the moment when shoemaker finally found peace. oh God this is beautiful, THIS IS TRULY A MASTERPIECE, WHY DOES IT HAVE SO LITTLE LIKES AND REBLOGS?? HELLO? GIVE IT ATTENTION PLEASE? TUMBLR WAKE UP!!! IT’S THE GUY WHOSE ASHES WERE CARRIED TO THE MOON, I THOUGHT TUMBLR LIKES SCIENTISTS AND ROMANTICISM–Shoemaker source link
