We sometimes think that we are just one person and cannot make that much difference.
Then you read about someone that has helped many see what has yet to be seen.
If you are a visual person that learns by seeing images, artists who can paint pictures help take us to places we can only imagine and show us places we have yet to visit ourselves.

Robert McCall; created hundreds of paintings on space
By Douglas Martin
New York Times / March 6, 2010
NEW YORK - Robert T. McCall, an artist whose fervor for space exploration found expression in his six-story-tall mural at the National Air and Space Museum and two postage stamps canceled on the Moon, died Feb. 26 in Scottsdale, Ariz. He was 90.
The cause was heart failure, said his wife, Louise.
Mr. McCall eagerly translated his youthful enthusiasm for drawing knights in shining armor on spirited steeds into paintings of intrepid astronauts in gleaming space vehicles, both real and imagined. When NASA in 1962 hit on the idea of enlisting artists to promote its mission, Mr. McCall was one of the first three chosen.
