Chesley Knight Bonestell Jr. (January 1, 1888 – June 11, 1986) was an American painter, designer, and illustrator.[2] His paintings inspired the American space program, and they have been (and remain) influential in science fiction art and illustration. A pioneering creator of astronomical art, along with the French astronomer-artist Lucien Rudaux, Bonestell has been dubbed the "Father of Modern Space art".

Lucien Rudaux (1874-1947), “Untitled,’ (Mars as seen from moon Deimos) 
Artist and astronomer Lucien Rudaux’s passionate love affair with the galaxy began when he was a child in Normandy and never waned. 
He built his first telescope when he was only 10 years old, then joined the Société Astronomique de France when he was 18. 
He set up his own observatory in his parents’ garden in Donville-les-Bains not long after, photographing the Moon and planets and creating an atlas of the Milky Way.
A 65-km-wide crater on Mars is named for him.

Lucien Rudaux
"If we reconstruct geometrically the outlines of certain lunar mountains from their observed appearance... we shall find that instead of being steep and jagged, they have quite gentle slopes and their summits are frequently flat or smoothly rounded." The first science artist to draw accurate pictures of Mars and the Moon
