I thought I'd find some more science based images, taking Muse's lead, that I thought would make good cover art (these are all unmodified)

 

This is a visualisation of all the planets the Kepler telescope has found if they were orbiting one star, coloured according to their temperature from a program called Exo (it works like the screens in Minority Report):

This is a similar NASA image of all the Kepler candidates, there's an animated version as well here:

This is a heat map of a active part of the Sun's surface:

This is a visualisation of how all the genes of the mustard plant interact:

This is actually a photograph of a tomato seed:

This isn't very sciencey but it is real-world, a map of who is friends with who on facebook.

So here it is. The lining up is horrid but I can't be fucked to make it better. Put some random 2nd Law advertising and the official cover at the end since I had so much space.

Well, he did say everything before that post. ;)

 

I know the official artwork's already out, but I wanted to try and go with the whole science-y thing. The top one is the basic layout of the Pleiades open star cluster, believed by some to contain a planet like ours. The bottom one is a partial of the Orion constellation.

Have you seen a telescopic close up of them? So, so beautiful.

Here is the official artwork with a black background, logo, and title.

And that's not on your part, I just mean generally :kiss:
