Exoplanet Travel Posters from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Inspired by vintage posters from the golden age of travel.
Where are you going on your next vacation? The beach? The Grand Canyon?
Hiking in the mountains? NASA has a much better idea.
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology is marketing three other-worldly travel destinations in the form of hypothetical posters from the fictional Exoplanet Travel Bureau. The posters, released in December, depict three exoplanets—planets that orbit a star other than our sun—the way travel posters in the 1930s portrayed Australia, Palestine, the Soviet Union and even Amtrak lines, as Business Insider points out.
The posters were created by NASA JPL Visual Strategists Joby Harris, David Delgado and Dan Goods, says Elizabeth Landau, a spokeswoman for NASA JPL. They were published on PlanetQuest, the public information site for NASA’s exoplanet exploration program.
