NASA wants YOU (yes, YOU) to go to Mars! That is, if you applied to be an astronaut in the last round of recruitment and can beat something like 18,300 other people who did. But, hey, don't get bogged down with details.
The space agency has previously created gorgeous, retro-futurist tourism posters to tempt us into pleasure cruises on Europa and nightclub hopping on starless, rogue exoplanets. But Mars isn't for tourists: It's for explorers. As part of the space agency's "Journey to Mars" campaign, they're working hard to inspire a new generation of Martian adventurers, and these posters — originally created for an exhibit at the Kennedy Center in 2009 — show kids that anyone can have dreams of going to space.
