A NASA Tumblr post about the newly found exoplanets in the Trappist-1 system included fantastic artist’s renderings of what the system and the planets might look like.
“The planets also are very close to each other. How close? Well, if a person was standing on one of the planet’s surface, they could gaze up and potentially see geological features or clouds of neighboring worlds, which would sometimes appear larger than the moon in Earth’s sky.”
One is even a retro-style travel poster! (See other NASA retro travel posters here.)
Love ’em! Find more at NASA on Tumblr!
Note: I wasn’t paid or perked to mention this; just passing along a good thing.
