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 set features "The Iconic Collection"—the absolute greatest hits of the night sky. From the brilliant star cluster of the Pleiades to the legendary Horsehead Nebula, these are some of the most famous and recognizable deep space objects ever discovered. 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.

🔭 From the Desk of Paul Bracken:
"If you asked a group of astronomers to list their favorite objects in the night sky, you would almost certainly end up with this exact list. These are the celestial showstoppers. I absolutely love having these specific images printed on high-gloss paper because targets like the Pleiades and the Orion Nebula have such brilliant, intense details that really pop when you hold them in your hands. It's the perfect starter set for anyone looking to bring a piece of the universe into their home."
