NASA is giving away its spectacular vintage-inspired space travel posters
for free! Back in the 1930s and ?40s, during the height of the Great
Depression, artists designed posters for the Works Projects
Administration to encourage travel to national parks and other tourist
sites in the United States. NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory is taking a
similar approach to promote a future of travel to other planets, and
has unveiled a set of retro-style posters advertising the solar systems
planets and moons as holiday destinations. Each poster is
representative of a specific historic space mission, and is now
available for free download online.
