Bridging the Universe-Boneste
Boneste was born in California on January 1, 1888. He has worked in San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Antonio and Paloma Observatory. At first, Boneste was engaged in architectural design, and participated in the design of the famous Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Later, he was engaged in film production. Using the experience and skills of the first two jobs and mastering astronomical knowledge, under the guidance of astronomers, Bang Aistai created many artistic paintings with high standards in science and art with a rigorous attitude. As he himself said: "From my understanding of film technology, I am sure that I can skillfully arrange the camera lens angle in film shooting and painting skills, so that I can travel from one satellite of Saturn to another, and what you see is as accurate as what you actually see."
it turns out to be true. Richardsson, a famous American astronomer, said: "Boneste's space art works surpass the similar works I have seen before, and are indeed of great artistic value to popular astronomy." Durant, a world-famous space art critic and former curator of the American Museum of Astronautics, also commented on the works of Estelle: "His planetary landscape paintings are so accurate that they are almost as real as the photos taken by later aircraft."
in p>1944, after drawing "Saturn Group Painting", he began to devote himself to space art creation. Since the 194s, Boneste has published many space paintings in magazines such as Flying to Mars in 28 Days, Mr. Smith to Venus, and Flying to the Moon by Rocket. Later, it was compiled into the book "Conquering Space".
In the early 195s, Boneste entered the peak of his creation. At that time, currier magazine invited him to draw pictures for a series of five articles looking forward to future space flight. The author of the article is the famous rocket expert von Braun (the host of human landing on the moon). Later, they became good friends and conducted a series of cooperation.
bang Estelle's space art works strongly influenced the American public and government. After the completion of every major space program, from the first artificial satellite in the United States to the exploration program to Mars, he will introduce it to the public in detail in graphic form. His works of art make monotonous astronomical data and engineering calculation intuitive and practical. Under the influence of his works, many scientists, engineers and astronauts have chosen the road they have been fighting for all their lives. In order to commemorate his outstanding contribution, the internationally permanently numbered asteroid 3129 was named "Bang Este".
In p>1984, with the assistance of Durant and others, Li Yuan organized "Cosmic Art Exhibition" and "Cosmos Calling" space art exhibition, with millions of audiences and far-reaching influence. At the beginning of 1985, 97-year-old Bang Aistai wrote in a congratulatory letter to Li Yuan, "I think the best way to make people interested in astronomy is to let them watch interesting astronomical art works and photos, and the best way to train a new generation of space painters is to introduce space art and astronomy to teenagers. This is the experience of Boneste, and he has done the same over the years. In 1986, at the age of 98, Boneste passed away.
