Description16.5" x 14" by Jack Fellows. Original oil painting on Masonite. Circa 1996.This painting was originally published on the Republic of the Marshall Islands PresentationPak for the 1996 Space Shuttle Atlantis $10 Commemorative Coin. From the collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. The illustration depicts the mission assigned to space shuttle Atlantis for its outer space debut. It received the highest security classification from the United States Department of Defense in the deployment of the Magellan spacecraft. The Magellan spacecraft, also referred to as the Venus Radar Mapper, was a 1,035-kilogram robotic space probe launched by NASA of the United States, on May 4, 1989, to map the surface of Venus by using synthetic aperture radar and to measure the planetary gravitational field. Shuttle commander Karol Bobko and pilot Ronald Grabe flew mission specialists David Hilmers, Robert Stewart and William Pailes on one of the shorter shuttle flights, lasting just over four days. Like the other orbiters in America's space fleet, Atlantis bears the name of a pioneering sea vessel that established new frontiers in research and exploration. Atlantis was named in honor of the primary research vessel for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in Massachusetts from 1930 to 1966. Social/Sharing |
