Hold the cosmos in your hands.
Before the days of high-speed internet, the best way to see the latest robotic exploration images from the Viking and Voyager missions was to write to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and ask for a press packet. We've recreated that thrilling, tactile experience with our exclusive line of high-quality physical photo prints.
This curated 9-piece collection features some of our most spectacular deep space captures. Each 8.5" x 11" print is produced on premium one-sided gloss paper, delivering stunning clarity and vibrant colors on the front. On the reverse side, you'll find an engaging scientific description of the celestial object, along with the exact Bracken Observatory equipment and exposure specs used to capture the shot—just like the classic JPL media packets of the 1980s!
Whether you're an educator looking for engaging classroom materials, a parent sharing the wonders of the universe with your kids, or an astronomy enthusiast wanting physical prints to frame or collect, this set is the perfect way to experience the cosmos away from a screen.

- CED 214 - The Cosmic Question Mark

🔭 From the Desk of Paul Bracken:
"When I was a kid, getting a package of 8.5x11 photo prints in the mail from JPL was absolute magic. In today's digital age where we are so used to just pinching and zooming on tiny phone screens, I really wanted to bring back that hands-on experience. There is something incredibly special about holding a physical print of a glowing nebula that is thousands of light-years away, flipping it over, and reading the science behind it. We've had such a blast handing these out at our local Tinkers & Thinkers events, and I'm thrilled to finally offer them in the shop."
