Kepler-186F is the first Earth-size planet discovered in the potentially “habitable zone” around another star, where liquid water could exist on the planet’s surface. Its star is much cooler and redder than our Sun. If plant life does exist on a planet like Kepler-186f, its photosynthesis could have been influenced by the star’s red-wavelength protons, making for a color palette that’s very different than the greens on Earth.
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
