Expedition 21 Star Trek Poster
Exp. 21 Poster. Credit: NASA
Is NASA becoming creative, fun and hip in their old (50 plus) age? They are Tweeting and Facebook-ing
like crazy, and also getting quite adept at imaginative promotional
images. A new poster for the next Expedition crew for the International
Space Station is now available and it has a Star Trek theme. This is a
great way for NASA to capitalize on the renewed popularity of Star
Trek, while bringing the names of faces of the ISS crews to the public
in an enjoyable and entertaining way. This Expedition 21 poster is
available in downloadable versions in medium and large files (pdf).
See NASA's entire collection of mission posters here at NASA's Spaceflight Awareness page.
