摘要

In June, some of the world's top space artists met on campus to exchange ideas at AstroViz 2018, a conference put together by IPAC, Caltech's science and data center for astronomy. "The idea was to reestablish a community of practice for astro-visualization professionals," says Janice Lee, an astronomer at IPAC and an organizer of the event, which was facilitated by NASA's Universe of Learning education and outreach program. Keynote speaker Rick Sternbach, an astronomical visualization expert who worked on Carl Sagan's 1980 TV series Cosmos, described how he and his group built models of the planets and then took pictures of them for the show. Around that same time, the Voyager mission started sending back stunning pictures of the planets, changing everything the group thought they knew. "Our special effects were being made obsolete every week," said Sternbach. IPAC visualization scientist Robert Hurt says this still happens. "You do the best you can given the current data, and then, yes, sometimes you have to go back and change the artwork when more data are captured." Hurt and multimedia engineer Tim Pyle created artwork to illustrate the Spitzer TRAPPIST findings-information about the first known star system to host seven Earth-size planets. The pair had to redo all of their TRAPPIST artwork after Spitzer and other telescopes gathered more-precise data on the planets' compositions. "The level of creativity and inspiration displayed at the conference was truly awesome," says Hurt. "From swapping ideas and techniques to showing off innovative ways that data can be heard or touched, we all have a lot of new tools in our arsenal for communicating the wonders of the universe." In Robert Hurt's concept of the TRAPPIST-1 system of exoplanets, the idea of a "habitable zone" is captured through water splashes that vaporize when too close to the star and freeze when too distant.
