Outer space has always captured the imaginations of the general public. New advances in technology (including comet landings, the Orion Spacecraft, and large scale social experiments leading to a Mars exploration) mean that outer space is no longer a place only astronauts will get to experience – but something you and I can experience within our lifetime.
For a long time, the fantastical visions of space exploration have been rooted in the scifi proposals of the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. Ring worlds, death stars, and space colonies conjure vibrant, psychedelic visions of the future from yesteryear. Since then, advances in space technology have multiplied exponentially. Are these retro visions still the best representation of our future in the stars?
The book will include 25 beautifully illustrated stories from the second annual Outer Space competition hosted by Blank Space. Proceeds from this publication will be donated to the Children’s Scholarship Fund Philadelphia, whose mission is to broaden educational opportunities for K-8th grade students from low-income families in Philadelphia by providing them with tuition assistance.
THIS IS A PRE-ORDER and the printing is limited to 250 copies. Books are expected to ship in the Summer of 2021.
