Does anyone have a DeviantArt account?

We need to email him so we can get a larger version uploaded, it's a shame we can't read the text really!

That picture is so innacurate it's unbeleivable, for a start where are the motherships of our reptile overlords that we know are hiding behind the moon

Are you sure the text actually says anything? Maybe it's meant to be beyond resolution. After all, it's art, not a text book!

Love the image but wish we had the correct size to read the text.
I may have to edit it and put my own in there.
For the space nuts i have a skywatcher 200p GOTO which is a fantastic scope.

Looking at where Jupiter is in it's orbit as a main guidline... Why are the planets so ridiculously huge in comparison to the sun?

He explained that, he had the shrink the Sun or it would cover a third of the image or something... it's art not a textbook!

From the artist:

Obviously, the sun is not the right size because I wanted to see it entirely, and not cutted in the middle as in most solar systems that you've probably already seen; (if the sun had been in a Good size, he would have been approximately 10 000 pixels in the image0
