    Cultural treasures and art — including Neil Armstrong's spacesuit — are slowly disintegrating as the plastic that composes them ages. Now museum conservators are racing to preserve these historical objects.https://nyti.ms/2PdlFCK

        Transitory art for transitory times. What is set in stone will last. It is like ARS LONGA VITA BREVIS in reverse.

        Ironic that the plastic we do want to keep disintegrates and the plastic we want to throw away doesn't. That's so typically human.

        It does, it breaks down into particles that get into the food chain. I don’t think they want Armstrong’s suit in bits.
