P is for Pinwheel Galaxy

PanPastel and acrylic ink.

O is for Wubbo Ockels

Why, yes, that is his real name.  First Dutch citizen in space, blah blah blah, mustache, Wubbo Ockels.

P.S.  My sincerest apologies, my lovelies, for the ridiculous delay.  I've had a lot of complaints about my "hiatus" (mostly from my brother,) so here's to me getting back on track.  

N is for Nebula

This is the Pillars of Creation nebula and the Horsehead nebula, smushed together.

P.S. This one lost a lot of detail in scanning, so I might upload a photo of it later.

M is for Mars Rover

L is for Laika

Astro dog.

K is for Klingon

J is for Jupiter

Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system.  It is an oblate spheroid (my favourite shape name,) same as Earth, meaning it bulges at the equator.  There is a visible storm on its surface called the Great Red Spot, known to have existed since at least the 17th century (bad ass.)  Also, it has at least 63 moons, the largest of which (Ganymede, one of the four discovered by Galileo) has a diameter greater than that of Mercury.

Pretty cool, Jupiter.  Pretty cool.
