I NEED MORE VOTES! Please pick which #spacemissions should be used for patches 7-10. Almost all the options are tied. All the options have 2-4 votes! Please help diversify the vote: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/c... | #spaceArt #sciArt #vote

Space Exploration Mission Patches

An embroidered patch set celebrating five robotic space missions, including Apollo, Voyager, Cassini, shown here. Coming soon are also Mars Rovers, Sputnik, Vostok… and potentially even more.

I did this with @arrrggghhh-ink.bsky.social who happens to be my brother. Here’s his original sketch, which was based on my #Voyager poster (for grown ups). | #spacetoberChallenge

#SpacetoberChallenge Day 5: Voyager

#sciart #spaceart #Voyager #artchallenge

A poster celebrating the Voyager space probe with the four planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The style is graphic appropriate for a children’s room. Each of the planets have a cartoonish face.

#SpacetoberChallenge Day 4: Moon

#sciart #spaceart #moon #artchallenge

Project Apollo Lunar Rover poster showing both astronauts in the LRV with the Lander needing them. Something there are actually no images of because the other astronaut was always on foot with the camera.

Written 55 years ago, Schulz's heartfelt clarity cuts through the noise, even today.

h/t @tisserand.bsky.social

Scan of a typed letter from 1970, from Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, addressed to "Joel Lipton, 622 N. Foothill Road, Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210"

It reads:

"Dear Joel:

I think it is more difficult these days to define what makes a good citizen than it has ever been before. Certainly all any of us can do is follow our own conscience and retain faith in our democracy. Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call "American Virtues" who lack this faith in our country.

I believe that our greatest strength lies always in the protection of our smallest minorities.

Sincerely yours,

Charles M. Schulz"
