“When I was a boy, I dreamed of flying airplanes and I built models from balsa wood,”
says artist Alan Bean. “By the time I was in high school, model airplanes of all shapes
and sizes were hanging by thin wires from the ceiling of my room. Airplanes were the
last things I would see before falling asleep at night. I dreamed of flying higher than
the highest cloud and faster than the fastest wind. As I grew older, the dream grew
stronger. It followed me as I completed flight training, became a jet pilot flying off
aircraft carriers and when, as a test pilot and then as an astronaut, I trained to rocket
to the Moon. And in my painting, as I look out over the ‘magnificent desolation’ of
the lunar surface, youngsters on Earth are building model rockets, dreaming of
flying higher than the Moon and faster than a shooting star.”
