There's something about it, too, that makes me feel a little more connected to this batch of astronauts, using this same insane little glass box we all have in our pockets to the very best of its potential. It brings the dream just a little bit closer, helps me imagine any of us could do it, too.
It's just the wildest thing to see this start with him going through the same fumbling around with his iPhone to get something distant in focus just like we all go through AND THEN IT RESOLVES INTO THE FREAKING MOON WITH THE FREAKING EARTH DISAPPEARING BEHIND IT

The design features a stylized illustration of a woman in traditional Polynesian attire surrounded by tropical elements like a toucan, palm trees, and flowers. The words "Dinner Menu" and "Disneyland's Tahitian Terrace" are prominently displayed on orange panels with floral line art.

"AFTER THE RAINBOW COMES THE STORM" BY DARWIN VAN CAMPEN. "Summer storms batter the high Mogollon Rim with unrelenting fury.

There before him, in all its glory, was a rainbow announcing the coming storm." Arizona Highways, April 1966

Two lines of three dimensional sans-serif letters colored in gradients of blue and purple reading βMaybe it will/Happen todayβ. Above the βyβ inβ todayβ and with its bottom point nestled neatly into the fork of the letter itβs a similarly dimensional golden pentagram with little flares of golden light glinting off its vertices. The entire lockup is superimposed over a glittering rainbow as it all streaks together through a black void.
