3D rendered prior to construction on the left. Completed glass sculpture on the right. The Apollo Command Module, suspended from the three Ringsail Parachutes about to splash down into the roiling, waiting ocean ready to receive them after a harrowing journey.
The Command Module is visibly heat scarred from re-entry. The module itself is hollow and the windows allow vision of the interior.
