I’ve known Dan Durda since college. We went to Michigan together, studying astronomy. He wound up getting into asteroids and exoplanets, and may yet be part of a team that will save the Earth from an impact.<\/p>

A few years back, he started dabbling in art, and discovered he was good at it. In fact, I’d say he’s really<\/em> good at it. His stuff has graced magazine covers and articles, and even this blog (see the Related posts<\/em> section below). <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/p>

See what I mean? His stuff is crazy beautiful.<\/p>

And now you can own it. He’s created his own CafePress store<\/a> where he’s got some of his work as prints. You can also get a 2012 calendar<\/a> (yes, it goes all the way through December; Dan and I are both real<\/em> astronomers) called \"All These Worlds…\", with some breathtaking artwork. <\/p>

He also has a gallery of his work online<\/a> you should check out simply because it’s fantastic. Through Dan I’ve met quite a few space artists, people whose work I have respected for many years. And they all get this look in their eye when they talk about Dan; they’re<\/em> impressed by him<\/em>.<\/p>

OK, enough gushing. Go take a look, and enjoy. I’m pretty sure you will.<\/p>
