DESKSPACE Lunar Surface Display Piece

From the dawn of time, the moon has captured our hearts and our imaginations.  On 20th July 1969 the first human took the first steps on the surface of the moon. This event captured the imagination of the entire world and catapulted us into the space-age. Now each of us can experience a small slice of this event through DeskSpace – the most detailed model of the lunar surface currently available at this scale at Kickstarter. 

Created using data from NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, the beautiful topography of the far side of the moon has been recreated using jewellery-grade concrete. Hand-finished and presented on a precision machine space-grade aluminium base, this is a truly unique and fascinating item that will be a talking point in any home or office.

It was 50 years ago that the first Apollo landing took place. With such an important anniversary, we understand that space enthusiasts need special items for their collections.

Available in two sizes, your lunar surface display item is beautifully presented in its own gift box. The larger version can be wall hung or displayed on a shelf, while the small version is ideal as part of a coffee table display or as a desk top item.

Available in two sizes:  Lunar Surface - Large and Lunar Surface - Regular

Large: Measuring 180mm x 180mm, this display piece is perfect for a wall or shelf. Detailing the most stunning areas of the moon surface that is littered with craters due to the constant bombardment of meteorites across many millions of years. This gradual disintegration of the lunar surface gives it its distinctive look that we are all so familiar with.

Regular: As a 100mm x 100mm concrete piece, this intricate lunar surface model rests on its precision machined and anodized base with a perfectly polished mirror logo. This item matches all our other DeskSpace pieces and can form a part of a beautiful space-themed collection. You can be sure that there will be the same attention to detail and consistent beauty across the entire range.

Every one of us has looked to the stars and wondered about other worlds and the expanse of time and space. Our moon is but a tiny part of the night sky and yet it holds such wonder as it is so easily seen with the naked eye. Having a tiny piece of the moon as a stylish display item makes a wonderful gift for anyone who holds a fascination with space. Ideal for a family home as a coffee table centrepiece , a stylish and sophisticated accessory for the home and office.
