In 1997 I earned a PhD in astronomy from Cornell University and went on to be an astronomer at the U.S Naval Observatory, Lowell Observatory and then a professor of astronomy at the University of Redlands in California. Educating the public about the wonders of the universe is what I love to do and since 2007 it has been a pleasure to do that through my art. In the 1930s the federal government used art to educate the public through the Works Progress Administration art program. I do the same today through my WPA-inspired posters that, like the \"See America\" campaign of the '30s, today encourages the public to see the beauty our national parks preserve at night when the Sun goes down. Astronomy ranger programs are now the most popular programs the parks offer and for that reason these posters highlight the danger that \"light pollution\" now poses to the half of the park that is after dark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese posters began, and indeed my life as a professional artist began, as a single illustration I needed for my 2010 book, Stars Above, Earth Below: a guide to astronomy in the national parks. I had no money to pay an artist, and so I drew a \"poster\" in the 1930s style so associated with national parks. As park rangers across the country bought my book, they began contacting me to ask if I could design a poster for their park. In time, their parks contacted me to ask if they could sell them to the public. Today, the \"See the Milky Way\" campaign truly is a national poster campaign and my slogan \"Half the Park is After Dark\" has become the unofficial motto of the NPS night sky program. It fills me with delight that I now walk to a WPA-era post office that contains a WPA-era wall mural, to mail my WPA-inspired posters to national parks all across America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SpaceArtTravelBureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39392037339295,"sku":"STICKMARS","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0486\/6464\/1695\/products\/SeeMars.jpg?v=1630865229"},{"product_id":"authentic-cards-mars-large-magnet","title":"Authentic Cards Mars - Magnet","description":"\u003cp\u003e3D lenticular magnet featuring Mars and its two moons: Phobos and Deimos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"productView-info\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003eWidth: 3.90in\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003eHeight: 2.70in\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003eDepth: 0.25in\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","brand":"AuthenticCards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39392050905247,"sku":"MG0089","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0486\/6464\/1695\/products\/AC-MarsMagnet.jpg?v=1635641302"},{"product_id":"authentic-cards-terrestrial-planets-long-postcard","title":"Authentic Cards Terrestrial Planets - Long Postcard","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e3D lenticular postcard featuring the terrestrial or inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePostcard features blank back with lined area for addresses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"productView-details\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productView-product\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"productView-info\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003eWidth: 8.30in \u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003eHeight: 4.10in\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"productView-info-name productView-info-name--height\"\u003eDepth: 0.01in\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"AuthenticCards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39392052379807,"sku":"AC0253","price":4.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0486\/6464\/1695\/products\/Authentic_Cards_Terrestrial_Planets_Long_Postcard.jpg?v=1615324022"},{"product_id":"passport-to-mars-notebook","title":"Passport to Mars Notebook","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis passport notebook is just the thing you need for your voyage to the Red Planet.

The public fell in love with the ambitious amateur astronomer who shared his findings in speeches and wildly popular books.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eWhile at first people treated the Martians whimsically—Martians headlining Broadway shows, biologists speculating whether they were winged or gilled—the discussion quickly became serious. Inventor Nikola Tesla announced he had received radio signals from Mars; Alexander Graham Bell agreed there was “no escape from the conviction” that intelligent beings inhabited the planet. Martian excitement reached its zenith when Lowell financed an expedition to photograph Mars from Chile’s Atacama Desert, resulting in what newspapers hailed as proof of the Martian canals’ existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eTriumph quickly yielded to tragedy. Those wild claims and highly speculative photographs emboldened Lowell’s critics, whose withering attacks gathered steam and eventually wrecked the man and his theory—but not the fervor he had started. Although Lowell would die discredited and delusional in 1916, the Mars frenzy spurred a nascent literary genre called science fiction, and the world’s sense of its place in the universe would never be the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eToday, the red planet maintains its grip on the public’s imagination. Many see Mars as civilization’s destiny—the first step toward our becoming an interplanetary species—but, as David Baron demonstrates, this tendency to project our hopes onto the world next door is hardly new. The Martians is a scintillating and necessary reminder that while we look to Mars for answers, what we often find are mirrors of ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781324090663\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Liveright Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003ePublication date: 08\/26\/2025\u003cbr\u003ePages: 336\u003cbr\u003eProduct dimensions: 6.10(w) x 9.10(h) x 1.20(d)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"W.W.
