The Pull of the Moon

DG Unlimited is proud to present, The Pull of the Moon. It is a creative reflection of the European Lunar Symposium which took place in Dumfries and Galloway this summer. Our heartfelt thanks to our friends – The Open University and The Crichton Trust, and all the Symposium partners, for permitting our team of artists and writers to creatively record the European Lunar Symposium. Special thanks to Emily Tough for capturing the event for us with her beautiful illustrations.

What a joy and a privilege for us to be part of such a prestigious and important event, and to witness the delegates’ commitment to Lunar science and exploration. It was a unique opportunity for us to be inspired by, and creatively record, an event we would not normally have had access to, have seen, or been part of. And I believe it’s been an important lesson for all of us – science and creativity may be very different spheres of expertise but we are all so similar too. We all seek new ideas and solutions. We look at the world and beyond very differently to the way many others might view it. And we all think outside the box and colour outside the lines!

On behalf of DG Unlimited, I hope you enjoy this publication. We have loved putting it together for the delegates, partners and all our followers. We trust it will serve as a special reminder of the 2024 European Lunar Symposium.
