As I posted back in February and March , the Horizons Newsletter of the AIAA Houston Section has been publishing full reproductions of all eight issues that Colliers magazine published between March 1952 and April 1954 with articles on space. The writers included Wernher von Braun, Willy Ley and other space notables of the time. The wonderful illustrations were created by Chesley Bonestell, Fred Freeman and Rolf Klep. The covers of the space issues are shown here:

Since my posts, Horizons has released reproductions of the fifth and sixth Colliers sets of space articles.

Here is a very nicely done video made on the International Space Station showing the wonderful artworks of the winners and finalists in the Humans in Space Youth Art Contest displayed on a tablet with the station’s Cupola module windows in the background. Astronaut Chris Hadfield gives an introduction. The soundtrack music is also from one of the entrants.

The international Humans in Space Youth Art Competition calls for youth 10-18 years old to “be inspired, creative and heard.” We invite them to learn about space and communicate their visions of the future of space travel and exploration through visual, literary, video, and musical artwork.
This years theme addresses the question, “How will humans use science and technology to explore space in the future, and what mysteries will we uncover?”
