there's no place like home... NASA/Amanda J Smith


NASA is currently celebrating the recent discovery of seven temperate Earth-sized exoplanets orbiting around the star TRAPPIST-1, a mere 39 light-years away.

As a small commemoration of this outstanding discovery, they have released a gorgeous new set of "space tourism" posters and infographics inspired by these new alien worlds. The spectacularly cool images were designed by NASA and artist Amanda J Smith, illustrated in a range of styles varying from a retro space race-era aesthetic to a clean contemporary infographic.

You can also download the main “pièce de résistance” of the series (below) here for free – ideal if you want to print it in full size to use as a poster.

Enjoy:
