THE LUNAR CODEX / LUNAR CODEX MUSEUM of ART
On February 22, 2024, Oceana Rain Stuart’s bronze sculpture Reminiscence made history, landing on the Moon’s south pole aboard the IM-1 lunar lander. This marked Stuart as one of the first female artists with artwork on the Moon, as part of NASA's historic Artemis mission.
Stuart’s art is preserved in the Lunar Codex Museum of Art, with 23 works featured across multiple missions, ensuring her legacy in humanity’s cultural heritage on the Moon. She is also part of LifeShip, contributing 23 digital sculptures for preservation alongside Earth's DNA for missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
*The Codex Nova mission contains only a small fraction of the total works archived by the Lunar Codex. Stuart's work Reminiscence is an inclusion in this collection. Future planned missions to the Moon, deep space and Mars include 23 of Stuarts work.
