Mars 98 was my first big chance to
make a splash, artwise. Well, the project made a splash alright
- of the non-survivable kind.
The Mars 98 project was my chance
to take the iniative and do what I could to show the public what
it was all about. By the time the first of the four Mars 98 spacecraft
arrived at Mars, I had already created a large set of mission
artwork. I managed to show the newly renamed Mars Climate Orbiter
and Mars Polar Lander in a variety of different scenes.
Then, one at a time, the entire Mars
98 project, including both Deep Space 2 microprobes, vanished
..... lost in space. I was there the night the Mars Climate Orbiter
was lost and it was quite an experience. |
