Title: | La Terra vista dalla Luna | Authors: | ADAMO, ANGELO | Issue Date: | 2014 | Journal: | ASTRONOMIA | Volume: | Atti del XLVII Congresso UAI 2014 | First Page: | 37 | Abstract: | In this article I will show how space art has also greatly helped astrophysics and space technology, allowing us to fi gure out what could not yet be photographed: the universe as it would appear when seen from other places in the Solar System. The amazing space illustrations of Étienne Trouvelot, Scriven Bolton, Lucien Rudaux and in particular those of Chesley Bonestell, besides their great artistic value, succeeded in convincing taxpayers of the importance of space missions. This particular use of art in a scientifi c project has at the time created a completely unexpected sociological dynamics that I will analyze using Merton’s Categories, casting new light on the possibility of a dialogue between art and science. | Conference Name: | XLVII Congresso UAI 2014 | Conference Place: | Castiglion de'Pepoli (BO) | Conference Date: | 9-11 maggio 2014 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/34488 | URL: | https://www.uai.it/sito/uai-news/9-11-maggio-2014-xlvii-congresso-unione-astrofili-italiani/ | ISSN: | 1593-3814 | Fulltext: | open |
