The original Space Window was designed by stained glass artist, Rodney Winfield (American b. 1925).   At the dedication ceremony of the Window in 1973, the astronauts of Apollo 11 presented a rare and precious gift to the Washington National Cathedral, a lunar rock. The rock, which is now embedded in the window itself, is visible to all but safely beyond reach, like the moon itself. The Space Window, with its 3½ billion-year-old rock, is a humbling and inspiring memorial that honors mans courage to dream and explore his universe.
