There's a shot near the end of PHM that reminded me of the first piece of artwork made in space: “Orbital Sunrise" 1965

The shot is around 2:27:01 and looks like this:

This is the sketch done by Alexei Leonov using special pencils that were created to be used in orbit drawn during the Voskhod 2 mission (the first space walk!)

I wanted to find a source for this image:

which is somewhat well known but I could find a reference or a source for it :<

But! Leonov was an accomplished artist who made many works involving cosmonauts and space:

Daybreak, 1980s:

Sunrise at the space, 1970s:

Here are some similar paintings he created^^

But it looks soo similar I cant help but think that it was inspired by Leonov's art

Here's a favorite of mine:

The Earth viewed from the Moon (ca. 1970)

I love Project Hail Mary and I love art and art of space in particular, and these illustrations are gorgeous and fitting for inspiration for the film

Today in the history of astronomy, Alexei Leonov makes history’s first EVA.

/ Space Colony Art From the Seventies

If you have a love for science fiction movies and have even daydreamed about what it would be like to live in outer space. You're in luck. At CC'd: we found a little something to jumpstart your imagination. In the 1970's the NASA Ames Research Center set about creating colonies in space should the need arise. The colonies were to be living cities of about 100,000 people and came in very intriguing shapes and sizes and included giant walkways, gardens and common areas. Sort of like Epcot meets Space 2001 Odyssey. Although never realized, the illustrations are imaginative and beautiful.
