All aboard the rocketship

There are only a few more months to see the Gothic Rocketship at Pier 14 on San Francisco’s Embarcadero. Although it looks as though it is ready to launch at any moment, it will leave its docking station later this fall so that another large piece of art will take its place.

Raygun Gothic Rocketship, a 40-foot-tall sculpture was created by a team of Bay Area artists lead by Sean Orlando, Nathaniel Taylor, and David Shulman. The Rocketship, poised as if to board passengers for a typical run to a nearby stellar destination has been in place for visitors from all galaxies to see since August 2010.

  1. We saw that last week visiting SF. I said it looked like Flash Gorden was visiting.

  2. I was about to write the same thing about Flash Gordon. It must be fun to see.
