Space has always fascinated humanity. The concept of an almost infinitely vast and complex universe stirs the deepest emotions in the viewer. From movies, TV shows, science, music, and art, outer space has had an incredible influence on our lives. And whether you’re a NASA scientist, a die hard science fiction fan, or just sitting in a cubicle working, space art can take your breath away.
In this post, we’ve rounded up 50 mind-blowing space images, that challenge and push the boundaries of both art and science. Each image is linked to the artist’s homepage, so you can view the fullsize and download wallpaper packs. If you liked this post, please share it with others.

Havest by Sphereuk; either that person did the artwork for the cover of pandora’s star the novel as available on audible; or that artwork is not original.
Go to http://www.audible.com and search on pandora’s star or here’s a direct link

Hey, glad you all liked them!
And Bob, “Harvest” by Sphereuk was posted on dA in 2007, the audiobook was released in 2008, so I’d venture to guess that they asked him for use of it as their cover. Good catch though.

Stunning, I’d love to have some of those on my wall (2x1m or so) on a nice canvas and some background lighting
12.18.09
I think some are available as prints on dA.

Really Amazing! Nice collection

I is certainly puts our roles in life in perspective. To simply imagine the vastness of our universe is one thing, but to put that mind’s view onto a physical medium to share with mankind is another. So many are just not aware of what we have here on our very small planet (and getting smaller every day).
When an artist renders the incredible perspective of our destiny, it is very humbling and thought provoking.
