Carte Vénus et Mars Per Martineau (cards)

This Image ce qui est vu par le travail de John Martineau dans "A Little Book of Cocontract". With tiled planes of solar and lunar motifs dans the background, a dodecahedron (12 pentagones, Plato's symbole for ether or spirit) defines 20 spheres (the métallc looking ones) that exactement touch. Inside these are the orbit of Vénus (green) and outside all is the orbit of Mars (faint red). Lac: www.GeometryCode.com for details. I think John Martineau's name will (some day, hopefully soon!) be heralded among Kepler, Galileo, Newton and Einstein for the astronomical discoveries he's made. Here's a link to John's book if you haven't lacs it (HIGHLY arecommandée): http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0802713882/intent-20 (Created with POV-Ray http://www.povray.org)
