Earth and Mars Cross Per Martineau Poster
by BruceRawles
This image was inspired by the illustration at the
bottom of page 40 of the remarkable work of John
Martineau, in "A Little Book of Coincidence". A
circle (Earth orbit) just touches each of 4 small
circles, which in turn, each just touch 4 larger
circles, which each touch the largest outer circle
(Mars orbit). Spheres are used to represent the
circles for artistic effect, and the outermost
eight spheres are decorative only.

Tiled planes of a colorized map of Mars sketched
by the astronomer Antoniadi (left & right) and the
lights of Earth at night (top & bottom) form
the background.
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):
