At Kennesaw State U. in Ga., an environmentalist piece of modern art is no more:

“Spaceship Earth” has crashed to the ground. Barely three months after the $1 million sculpture was unveiled at Kennesaw State University, it collapsed in the middle of the night — all 175 tons — perhaps because of faulty glue. What was intended as a gift for future generations rested instead as a pile of rubble Wednesday, blue rocks chipped and scattered in front of the Social Sciences building. The engraved phrase “our fragile craft” was visible amid the debris.
