NASA Transforms Real Science to Fictional Horror Movie Posters

Everyone wanted to show all the creative side of themselves nowadays especially during the spooky and also festive season of Halloween. NASA has joined to be creative too by releasing quite a number of posters that are totally inspired by various classic horror movies art so that they can be relatable with Halloween. Other than posters, they also released with them some creepy real-life facts. This is such a great idea from NASA to be educational and fun.

Themes and stories on space travel and also tales of ghoulish creatures in the farthest reaches have been closely related to all of the movie-goers for decades. It could be from early efforts by Georges Méliès through Ridley Scott’s atmospheric classic horror Alien. In this current modernization world, more recent efforts focus on human attempts to colonize space like The Martian and also the famous George Clooney’s upcoming Netflix movie that is “The Midnight Sky”, which has just released a trailer revealing the film will drop in the month of December.

NASA is using the world of movies to encourage people to learn more about their real-life work. They have launched a “Galaxy of Horrors” site, which features several horror movie-style posters by illustrators. The twist for all these posters is that each poster is inspired by a real-life space fact or tells a story about the horrors of space. NASA provided high-resolution posters to download for six destinations and tells a short story about each. Every poster created imagines a movie about real-life phenomena that are just as scary as anything you’ve seen in the movies.

An astrophysicist named Jason Rhodes stated, “One of the things I really like about these posters is that if you spend some time studying the art and then maybe go learn a little more about each of these topics, you’ll see there was a lot of thought by the artists about the choices they made to highlight the science”.
