NASA’s Langley Research Center asked kids from the Hampton Rhodes area of Virginia to create art in keeping with the theme “The Future is Now.” The results are wonderful.
From Gizmodo:
Much like the drawings and written predictions of American kids from earlier generations, there is a healthy mix of both optimism and pessimism. Optimism, it would seem, that we will one day conquer the stars in a way that our grandparents had only dreamed. Pessimism, in a way that can only be communicated with a handful of arctic animals surrounded by melting ice and an oppressive sun rising behind them.
Like all kids artwork, the masterpieces ranged from funny to beautiful to profound, with a dash of what-exactly-is-that-supposed-to-be thrown in for good measure. Here are some of our favorites, but you can see them all on NASA Langley’s Flickr page.
