Artist Statement

In my design, I imagine a future mission to Titan, a moon of Saturn's that shows promising signs of water and potentially hospitable to human life. I chose Hermes II as its title for a few reasons. First, Hermes is the patron deity of travelers and diplomacy, an apt name for a mission of exploration. Also, in Greek mythology, the Titans were overthrown by the Olympians, so choosing Hermes (an Olympian) represents a reconciliation between our world and Titan. Finally, I'd like to think this is a series of missions that include astronauts from different countries of Earth, hence it being the second Hermes mission. — Daisy Patton
