you are gonna laugh at this

- Ok the Odysseus lander is a privately owned spacecraft that landed on the moon successfully a few days ago

- Aboard this lander, the artist Jeff Koons had a cube of 125 small metal spheres bolted to the side, to sell NFTs of "the first artwork on the moon" ( source: https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/22/style/jeff-koons-moon-phases-odysseus-landing/index.html)

- The lander tipped over on landing, perhaps it snagged a rock or landed poorly, and now its antennas and solar panels are pointed in the wrong directions (source: https://www.sciencealert.com/the-odysseus-moon-lander-is-tipped-over-but-why )

The down side of the lander contains the CUBE WITH THE ART, which makes you wonder if it contributed to the lander being unbalanced and it top heavy in that direction. Did they account for the weight of 125 ball bearings on one side of the lander, mounted high up for photography purposes?

tl;dr NFTs wrecked the lunar lander, hooray for capitalism and private space travel

@cargo Wouldn't be NFT bullshit without blatant lies too, because it's almost certainly not the first so-called artwork on the moon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_Museum
Moon Museum - Wikipedia

@nytpu they said "first authorized art" specifically to get around that
@cargo @nytpu if its authorized is it really art
