Like Luke Skywalker’s planet “Tatooine” in Star Wars, Kepler-16b orbits a pair of stars. Depicted here as a terrestrial planet, Kepler-16b might also be a gas giant like Saturn. Prospects for life on this unusual world aren’t good, as it has a temperature similar to that of dry ice. But the discovery indicates that the movie’s iconic double-sunset is anything but science fiction.

A creative team of visual strategists at JPL, known as "The Studio," created the poster series, which is titled "Visions of the Future." Nine artists, designers, and illustrators were involved in designing the 14 posters, which are the result of many brainstorming sessions with JPL scientists, engineers, and expert communicators. Each poster went through a number of concepts and revisions, and each was made better with feedback from the JPL experts.

Each 2" x 3" magnet is laser cut from a 1/8" thich piece of birch wood. We then print the art directly on the wood and pass the piece through a UV coater before having a magnetic backer adhered to the back of the piece. NOTE:  Some stainless-steel surfaces are not magnetic; check if your refrigerator’s is before ordering. Customs code 8505.19.00
