Where the Grass is Always Redder on the Other Side Print

Here's a great poster featuring a beautiful image from deep space

Where the Grass is Always Redder on the Other Side Print

tagged with: kepler-186f, planet, 'habitable, nasa, space, star, astronomy, solar

Kepler-186f is the first Earth-size planet discovered in the potentially 'habitable zone' around another star, where liquid water could exist on the planet's surface. Its star is much cooler and redder than our Sun. If plant life does exist on a planet like Kepler-186f, its photosynthesis could have been influenced by the star's red-wavelength photons, making for a color palette that's very different than the greens on Earth. This discovery was made by Kepler, NASA's planet hunting telescope.

Here's a great poster featuring a beautiful image from deep space

Experience the Gravity of a Super Earth HD 40307g Print

tagged with: hd 40307g, nasa, space, art, astronomy, exploration, planet, exoplanet

Twice as big in volume as the Earth, HD 40307g straddles the line between "Super-Earth" and "mini-Neptune" and scientists aren't sure if it has a rocky surface or one that's buried beneath thick layers of gas and ice. One thing is certain though: at eight time the Earth's mass, its gravitational pull is much, much stronger.
