🌑 WMF and CyArk Unveil Lunar Heritage Tapestry Backed by ICOMOS ISCoAH Expertise
🎤 On 28/10, ICOMOS ISCoAH President Gai Jorayev participated in the 2025 World Monuments Summit to discuss the emerging concept of lunar heritage, highlighting ICOMOS' efforts to raise awareness of its values and to promote global cooperation for its safeguarding. He emphasised how the Apollo 11 landing site's nomination on the 2025 World Monuments Watch helped draw attention to the threats faced by space heritage, whether on Earth or in orbit.
🖥️ Within the framework of the Summit and in alignment with this theme, @WorldMonuments and @CyArk, in collab with ISCoAH, announced the launch of a free digital platform that offers a virtual tour of the #Moon’s surface, showcasing the most significant sites related to lunar exploration.

World Monuments Fund and CyArk are proud to share Heritage on the Moon — a new immersive Tapestry experience exploring humanity’s lasting footprint on the lunar surface - tapestry.cyark.org/content/m…
From the Apollo descent modules and the Luna rovers to modern mission equipment from China, India, and Japan, the artifacts that remain on the Moon tell a story of human curiosity, ingenuity, and cooperation. Yet as lunar travel increases, these traces of human history face new risks.
Journey across the Moon to see how technology, science, and culture intersect in one of humanity’s most remarkable stories.
