NASA’s Artemis II Moon mission began the return leg of its historic voyage on Monday night (4/6/26) completing the first half of a figure eight trajectory from the Earth to the Moon and back again. This bit of physics is a marble trick that sent Integrity scooting along the curves mapped around the Moon’s gravity on a path that gets captured again by Earth’s gravity, setting them on a course to return to Earth on April 10th in a most elegant demonstration of orbital mechanics!
Inspired by this Moon-trip (of course!) I felt that I could indicate the figure eight and honor their cosmic journey with both a new style of earrings and a matching pendant! I used a mix of our hammered brass hoops to create the figure eight path and combined them with a wrapped Turquoise round (that so obviously looks like the Earth!) and a smooth Moonstone orb to complete the design! I love the look of these even without attaching the inspiration behind them!
These are available in two chain options, Sterling Silver or Brass:
ARTEMIS II ORBITAL Pendant is:
Bottom outer Brass hoop: 1 1/4" diameter
Upper Brass Hoop is 1" diameter
Its total height is 2 1/2" from the top of the upper hoop to the edge of the bottom hoop and each is suspended from your choice of an adjustable 16"/18" Sterling Silver or Brass chain:
