really need a picture

This article really need a picture. Would it be fair use to include one of his paintings ? -- Beardo 16:58, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was not sure when I looked for those. "Fair use" seems a big stretch to use a copyrighted reproduction, here. Better to find one that was made for or is owned by NASA, which would make it PD. Happy hunting! Awolf002 20:32, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Star Trek:TNG

One of the starships at the Battle of Wolf 359 between the Federation and Borg was named Bonestell. It was probably named after this dude. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.31.114.93 (talk) 04:34, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Point needs verification

[Moved from article:] This point needs verification, but Bonestell may have created several large space murals that were shown the New York City Planetarium in the early 1960s depicting the moon's surface and other scenes. Perhaps these were from the Destination Moon film set pieces? They were dramatically illuminated and presented in darkened halls. This is from a personal memory. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.153.126 (talk) 10:47, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, the Charles Hayden Planetarium of the Boston Museum of Science once had a moon mural by Bonestell in the planetarium's lobby. It depicted steeper vertical gradients than those subsequently found on the moon, and was removed sometime around 1970. Research in the Museum's archives and in print media of the period from 1955 to 1970 might reveal an image that could be placed in this article. Snezzy (talk) 11:02, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation?

I was hoping to find out here whether his name is pronounced bone-stell (long o) or bon-e-stell (short o).Ajericn (talk) 12:33, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
