This poster was created for the Da Vinci Project – One of the entries into the $10 million Ansari X Prize – a race to be the first organization that could put a man into space and a return flight within 30 days. The contest was won by SpaceShipOne, and this poster was never used. I do however love the play on the Da Vinci vesuvian man and the shape of the ships compartment that would carry their astronaut. A second graphic play was made on the color code of the heat diagram sketched by engineers and the levels of fundraising the poster was create to promote.
