Constellations of the Earth ist ein Projekt, das mit Hilfe eines Satelliten und eines handgefertigten Funkwellenreflektors eine neue „Konstellation“ am Boden zeichnet. Der Erdbeobachtungssatellit Daichi 2 sendet Funkwellen und beobachtet die Bodenoberfläche, indem er die reflektierten Funkwellen registriert. Indem wir einen Funkwellenreflektor am Boden anordnen, reflektieren wir effizient die Funkwelle von Daichi 2 am Boden und zeichnen dort eine „Konstellation“.
