The Saturn V was a NASA rocket used between 1966 and 1973. It is the only launch vehicle that has been able to transport humans beyond low Earth orbit, making it responsible for bringing 24 different astronauts to the Moon.

I love these sort of infographics because they give you a sense of the design and engineering that went into these colossal machines. This illustration comes from a Stephen Biesty Incredible Cross-Sections book. Looking through these books is giving me a strong rush of nostalgia for the countless hours spent in my youth pouring over all of these intricate details.

James Friedman is an American photographer who was curious about what the inside of golf balls might look like.  He used 20 different types, and I’m astonished at the diversity he found.

 Also, with the black backgrounds, the images could pass for planets in outer space.

From the artist:

“Curiosity led me to cut my collection of golf balls in half to see what the cores looked like. To my surprise, what I found inside inspired me to consider that I could discover, in the unlikeliest of places, elegant formal qualities, unpredictable color schemes and metaphor.

Interior Design has moved me to be enthusiastic about abstraction, an exciting corollary to my work as a documentary photographer.Incidentally, I do not play golf.
