Rocket Rollout, also titled Moon, Horizon, and Flowers. An abstract representation of moving the Saturn rocket from the Vehicle Assembly Building to the launch pad. The piece is divided into three horizontal bands. The top band is half of the image, which includes a blue background with a large yellow circle of a moon on the right and the lacelike arming tower silhouetted against it on the left. The middle band is demarcated by dark yellow edges and is decorated by multicolored shapes and designs against a dark background. The bottom band is full of similar multicolored pieces, but with overlapping flowers drawn in black on top of the colors.
