"Don't look up" - science fiction art by Simon Cattlin
I painted this theme as an alternative strategy to the 2021 film “don’t look up”.
As part of our future planetary defence systems a powerful HAIV ( hypervelocity asteroid intercept vehicle ) will be designed, tested and deployed to protect us from destructive near earth objects crossing our orbit.
In September 2022 NASA successfully diverted the smaller Dimorphus asteroid’s orbit, around its larger Didymos companion, as part of the DART project via a direct “nudge” impact. This early success demonstrates the capabilities that we can develop to protect Earth from dangerous asteroids and comets.
In the painting a large fast moving comet is being intercepted by a UN spaceforce mission armed with lancer missiles and a nuclear round rail-gun. If the mission fails Earth will suffer a catastrophic impact destroying everything we hold dear - an extinction level event awaits us….
