About This Design

Brown Dwarfs As Seen By An Interstellar Traveller. Sherpa Blanket

Brown Dwarfs As Seen By An Interstellar Traveller. Sherpa Blanket

Artist's concept illustrating what brown dwarfs of different types might look like to a hypothetical interstellar traveller who has flown a spaceship to each one. On the left is an L dwarf, in the middle is a T dwarf, and on the right is a Y dwarf. The objects are progressively cooler in atmospheric temperatures as you move from left to right. The L dwarf is seen as a dim red orb to the eye. The T dwarf is even fainter and appears with a darker reddish, or magenta, hue. The Y dwarf is dimmer still. Because astronomers have not yet detected Y dwarfs at the visible wavelengths we see with our eyes, the choice of a purple hue is done mainly for artistic reasons. The Y dwarf is also illustrated as reflecting a faint amount of visible starlight from interstellar space. In this rendering, the traveller's spaceship is the same distance from each object. This illustrates an unusual property of brown dwarfs, that they all have the same dimensions, roughly the size of the planet Jupiter, regardless of their mass. This mass disparity can be as large as fifteen times or more when comparing an L to a Y dwarf, despite the fact that both objects have the same radius.

The fabric is really soft, and thick, I’m sitting here with it wrapped around me and it’s so warm! It’s really smooth and sleek on the printed side and fluffy on the back. I love it! Such good quality, so vibrant and clear, not blurry at all! See the photos I’ve attached, there’s no filters or anything on them!

Fantastic quality and the size is brilliant. Already looking at what other products are on the site as I will definitely be buying from here again. Absolutely fantastic. Some images came up with a warning as I was making the blanket but I didn’t have another copy so I went for it. I expected the photo to be really blurry but although not as clear as the others it is much clearer than I expected.

The feel was absolutely gorgeous! Unfortunately I underestimated the size but I have the large size in my basket waiting to go :). Fantastic quality! Really pleased with how the print came out
