Cool Art: 'Historic Robotic Spacecraft' Poster Series by Chop Shop

'Historic Robotic Spacecraft' is a Kickstarter poster series by Chop Shop that celebrates the most popular and notable interplanetary NASA robotic space missions - Voyager, Cassini/Huygens and Curiosity.

Each space mission poster was chosen through an online poll and will be screen-printed in a minimum of three colors by Vahalla Studios, and there are various other perks in this campaign, including T shirts, additional prints and even membership to The Planetary Society, which was founded in 1980 by Carl Sagan, Bruce Murray, and Louis Friedman.

There's just under a week to go and the campaign is fully funded with the total currently just over $17k. But the more you pledge the more prints that become available through their stretch goals.

If they go over $22K, they will design and print the fourth most popular mission from the Planetary Society poll: The Mars Exploration Rovers; Opportunity and Spirit.

Go over $28K, and the fifth most popular mission from the Planetary Society poll: Sputnik will be designed and printed.

And if they go over $34K, they will design and print a poster celebrating The Planetary Society itself and donate 300 copies to them for sale on their own site to help support the institution and their goals.
