Jupiter And Mars Per Martineau T-Shirt

This image was inspired by the remarkable work of John Martineau, in "A Little Book of Coincidence". Tiled planes of Jupiter's surface (top & bottom) and a colorized map of Mars sketched by the astronomer Antoniadi (left & right) form the background. The centres of four outer circles define the orbit of Jupiter and the orbit of Mars is defined by the inner red circle. Spheres are used instead of circles for a more artistic effect. 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 seen it (HIGHLY recommended): http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0802713882/intent-20 (Created with POV-Ray http://www.povray.org)
