Comparing planetary systems, artwork
Comparing planetary systems. Artwork comparing the sizes of the 55 Cancri (a Sun-like system, left) and the Cha (upper right) planetary systems. The latter, a small brown dwarf star system, has been studied with the Hubble Space Telescope and the Spitzer Space Telescope. Although the brown dwarf is a failed star, it is thought that the disk found surrounding it might one day form planets like those shown here. Cha is only about eight times the mass of Jupiter, and is 500 light years away in the constellation Chamaeleon. This work was published in 2005

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases a fascinating comparison between two distinct planetary systems. On the left, we have the 55 Cancri system, which bears a striking resemblance to our own Sun-like system. The intricate illustration beautifully depicts the sizes and orbits of its planets, providing us with a glimpse into this distant cosmic neighborhood. In contrast, on the upper right corner lies the Cha 110913-773444 system, centered around a small brown dwarf star. Although this celestial body failed to ignite as a star itself, scientists believe that its surrounding disk may one day give birth to planets similar to those depicted here. This intriguing possibility adds an element of wonder and potential for future discoveries in our exploration of alien planetary systems. The Hubble Space Telescope and Spitzer Space Telescope played crucial roles in studying Cha 110913-773444 from afar due to its location approximately 500 light years away in the Chamaeleon constellation. Published back in 2005 by Science Photo Library, this artwork serves as both an astronomical illustration and a testament to human curiosity about our place within the vast universe. With elements of astrophysics, cosmology, and planetary science intertwined within this image's medium, it invites viewers into an awe-inspiring journey through space while highlighting the diversity of stellar systems beyond our own.
