Dear all,

thanks for supporting my enclosed application for a very cool contest by @ESA and @Arianespace

The prize is a trip to #Kourou to witness a launch of an @Arianespace rocket by posting a #SpaceSelfie and having attended one of the #SpaceTalks events.

The most retweeted and liked entries can win.

These @Spaceholix here already traveled around our world to see 3 #SpaceShuttle , 1 #Delta and 1 #Soyuz launch into the sky.

We shared many unforgettable memories with many friends from all around the globe and all walks of life over the past 12 years, since our first launch at #KSC Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex...

Soon I'll be adding a really surreal thing:

Spilling some beans here:

one of my artworks will be EXHIBITED THERE at #KSC in Florida

on 21.12.2018 at the #50thAnniversary of #Apollo8 #Earthrise celebrations UNDER #SpaceShuttle #Atlantis during the opening of the Constellation.Earth tour.

This is a wonderful project founded by astronauts

* Nicole Passonno Stott @Astro_Nicole * Ron Garan @Astro_Ron

* Anousheh Ansari @AnoushehAnsari

* Leland Melvin @Astro_Flow.

„This event will mark the launch of a worldwide movement, motivated by their experience in space, to inspire hope and positive change to ensure our planet is a thriving home for all.“

Such an honor to have my design #TheCreationOfSpaceInspiration being chosen together with masterpieces by 15 other inspiring #SpaceArtists from all around the world.

Many of them are also members of our wonderful #IAAA

IAAA - International Association of Astronomical Artists

So these posts by Nicole and their Simon Kregar Jr. - the art director of Constellation Foundation made me smile A LOT 😃

All this - after having seen SpaceShuttle #Atlantis lift-off twice

( #STS115 in 2006 and #STS135 in 2011, where our #SocialMediaFairyTale began) and also #Shuttle #Endeavour #STS124 in 2008 with Ron Garan onboard - is somehow bringing things for these German #SpaceTweeps here to a full circle 🇩🇪 👪

And yes, we‘d really LOVE to visit our #BucketList goal French-Guyana #Kourou 🚀

And if my #SpaceSelfie wins I promise to @esa @esaoperations @ESA_de and @Arianespace I will design a(nother) special badge - especially for this event 🎨

A German Type IXC U-boat built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II. She was captured on 4 June 1944 by United States Navy Task Group 22.3 (TG 22.3). She is one of six U-boats that were captured by Allied forces during World War II, and the first warship to be captured by U.S. forces on the high seas since the Anglo-American War of 1812. She was donated to the Museum of Science & Industry in 1954 as a Museum Ship and is only one of four German U-Boats preserved as museum ships and only one of two Type IX-C remaining from the war.

Happy 50th anniversary La Silla Observatory

from yours @Spaceholix

with our travelbuddies,

the #SpaceMascots

@PinkLilDragon & houseguest @CamillaSpace

Thank YOU for being such a vital part of #TheCreationOfSpaceInspiration - not only for our family!

By discovering @ESO on social media back in 2012 during your #ESO50Years contest

YOU -amongst other space and science agencies- daily increased my curiosity and my wish to learn more about things out of my everyday business,

to explore and try things well outside my comfort zone and to #DareMightyThings.

One small step led to another and by nurturing that seed in me, an amazing journey gained speed for the three of us.

Thanks to the #MagicPowerOfSocialMedia,

my family and I explored some the most amazing places, met some the most inspiring people ever since, connected with people from all walks of life and from all around our beautiful #BlueDot sharing our passion for #Space and #Science - turning into an ever growing #SpaceFamily.

Thus YOU helped to enrich our lives with numerous unforgettable and often #ForrestGumpLikeMemories.

In a few of my entries for your first contest #ESO50Years #GoParanal from 2012 I wrote that I want to inspire my little one and to show him the beauty of our world and our universe and I am happy that -so far- we had many great chances doing so and I am looking forward to the future.

Sometimes I am wondering, how this German gal here with no professional scientific background at all did become a certified #AsteroidHunterRookie and #MeteoriteHunterRookie, live tweeted from @CERN‘s #LHC and -together with my family attended many space / science events by ESA and NASA TEDx and SpaceUp conferences traveling around our marble,...

... Organizing small space gatherings and sharing my art work and little mementos of our adventures specially designed for many of those events with all attendees AND speakers became a fond tradition in the past 7 years.

And having seen many astronauts, from Mercury and Apollo who flew to and walked on the moon to today’s inhabitants of the #ISS, astronomers, scientists, and our growing #SpaceFamily wearing my badges and lanyards and having them sign our Thank You posters always makes me smile.

And having become a member of the #IAAA (INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ASTRONOMICAL ARTISTS iaaa.org), with my artwork being auctioned off by Apollo astronauts and a painting which will be exhibited under #SpaceShuttle #Atlantis on 21.12.2018 during the #Apollo8 #Earthrise celebration also marking the launch of project #Constellation created by Nicole Passonno Stott, Ron Garan, Anousheh Ansari and Leland Melvin AT Kennedy Space Center in Florida will forever be surreal.

As THIS is the place where I finally fell in love with everything around #Space during watching my 1st of 3 #SpaceShuttle launches of #STS115 back in 2006.

AND from where I sent my very first tweet EVER on July 8th 2011, while watching the final launch of #Shuttle #Atlantis together with @LightspeedLeo on the day he turned 9 months old. What a birthday candle that was.

#OneSmallStepForHumankindOneGiantLeapForMe

I LOVE it, when things come to full circles ;-)

I am so looking forward to the day when our now 8 year old son will understand, whom he met since being a toddler and to which places we were invited.

So I want to thank all of you around @ESO for inviting the public to #ReachingBeyondTheStars -literally and figuratively and for doing what you do.

You all make a difference.

And knowing that OUR story is only one of many inspired by your work is amazing.
