Tomorrow at 2 pm artist Katie Paterson will launch a fragment of the Moon around the earth for her artwork Second Moon. But rather than travelling in space, this moon will orbit the earth via an air freight courier company, traveling anit-clockwise in a wooden cargo box for a whole year. The box will be monitored using tracking numbers and signed for roughly every 12 days. People can track its journey using a free app, design by Fraser Muggeridge studio and Supermono, which will show the fragment's location in relation to the actual Moon, your own location, and other planets in our solar system.
