Space, Not Safe For Work March 18, 2010
Posted by sarah in: astronomy, pics , trackback
Astropixie has started a new post on her blog called Dirty Space News, inspired by a rather unfortunate-looking figure in a paper she was reading from astro-ph. There have been lots of contributions with more suggestively shaped figured and images. I wonder if Sarah Gallagher, the paper’s lead author, knows the new movement her last paper has sparked?
I spotted the poster shown above in our corridor – its designers have amazingly managed to make the XMM satellite look even more phallic than it already did…. I’m starting to think X-ray astronomers have had a lot of fun with this over the years.
Go check it out here and send her your own Dirty Space images!
