The Astronaut Who Painted the Moon: The True Story of Alan Bean
Dean Robbins
An account of Alan Bean, Apollo 12 astronaut and fourth person to walk on the moon, follows his journey from wanting to fly planes to reaching the lunar surface. After returning to Earth, Bean turned to painting because photographs could not convey his experience of the moon’s landscape. He created many paintings, using his astronaut boots, lunar tools, and moon dust, and the book includes a timeline along with paintings and related photos.
