Episode 84: The Lunar Codex with Samuel Peralta

In this episode, artist and podcast host Jessica Libor speaks with the founder of the Lunar Codex, Samuel Peralta, about his groundbreaking project that will be sending female artist's work to the moon for the first time in history. The Lunar Codex is that dream realized, a collection of works from thousands of artists across the globe, launched in three time capsules to the Moon.  The U.S.'s National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has a plan, the Artemis Program, to land humans back on the Moon in 2025, for the first time in over 50 years.  In preparation, NASA will send scientific instruments to the Moon, over 2022 to 2024, via Commercial Lunar Payload Service (CLPS) partners, such as Astrobotic Technologies and Intuitive Machines. Their lunar landers will launch as payloads of commercial rocket platforms by the United Launch Alliance (ULA) or SpaceX.  Along with NASA instruments, these missions will carry commercial payloads, including the time capsules that make up  The Lunar Codex.
