Where Your Shadow Always Has Company

NASA was quick to see how they could use exoplanets to promote the work that NASA does. In 2015, the space agency published a series of travel posters. They were created by NASA artists Joby Harris, David Delgado, and Dan Goods. Using an art deco style, bold colors, and a classic design—as used in the golden age of travel—the posters invited space tourists to visit exoplanets! The posters included one on dual-star planet Kepler-16b, which boasted the line: “where your shadow always has company.”

David Delgado said they felt inspired by the discovery of so many new exoplanets: “We thought it would be really cool to explore the characteristics of each planet through the context of travel,” he said. “It feels like we’re living in the future, or science fiction is coming to life.”
