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
