Encyclopedia Galactica is the compilation of a series of paintings by Emmy Award-winning artist Jon Lomberg, in collaboration with the late astronomer and science popularizer Carl Sagan. The exclusive, limited edition poster, now available through Astronomy magazine, depicts our home galaxy as a network of civilizations at varying stages of technological advancement. Each 30" x 21" print comes with an informational guide describing the decades-long history behind Encyclopedia Galactica, heavily influenced by Sagan, and explaining the symbolism behind the unique mandala designs Lomberg uses to represent civilizations at varying stages of technological advancement.
