Life, 4 March 1946
🧵👇
‘The idea of a trip to the moon, an irresistible combination of high adventure and escape . . . has always fascinated the people of the earth . . . In this...’ Illustration as reprinted in Bonestell & Ley, The Conquest o
century . . . men have seriously thought of getting to the moon by rocket. Shown here is the scientifically realistic rocket journey conceived by [Bonestell], a Hollywood special-effects artist and amateur astronomer whose paintings of Saturn's moons [were] published in [1944].
'STARTING FOR THE MOON, the rocket climbs 200 miles above the US east coast. Inside the earth's shallow atmosphere...it flies like an ordinary airplane at a comparatively low speed. ...Long Island. ...New York City. ...the Great Lakes.' image from http://www.bonestell.com/the_chesley_bonestell_ar

NEW PIECE: A Visual Introduction to the Dwarf Planets of our Solar System🔭🌕🌑🪐 #dwarfplanets #space #dwarf #outerspace #planet #pluto #infographic #dataviz #orbit #scicomm #sciviz #nasa #spaceart #visual
This one is a fun topic for me - I've always been fascinated with society's disdain for Pluto's downgrade, but the complete lack of interest for the other members of Pluto's family!!
You'll notice there's more than 5 of the IAU's recognized dwarf planets. This is because I referenced additional planets that are agreed upon by @plutokiller, @GonzaloTancredi, and Will Grundy @LowellObs. Depending who you ask, there's more!

As a budding science communicator, I follow #science & #space info campaigns not only for entertainment, I follow to learn. One of the campaigns that have been a masterclass in comms of the #CopernicusEU #Sentinel6 project. (My thread on the launch campaign ⬇️)#scicomm #sentinerd
I also enjoyed #NASAHalloween campaign, this year they not only released some amazing posters (see below) but they also had a playlist of amazing spooky space music➡️ soundcloud.com/nasa/sets/sini…
