Back cover album art for "Simple Orbits" by Scott Ritcher. The illustration was created by clipping pieces out of dozens of colonial and pre-20th century woodcuts. A nice touch is the use of Kentucky bourbon barrels as the shuttle's engines.
Photography and design by Scott Ritcher. The helmet is a Soviet-era TK-4A high altitude model purchased on eBay from China.
