Science Art: <i>Orbits of the Planets</i> by Asa Smith, 1850

This hypnotic image seems to have traveled out of Asa Smith’s book, into David Rumsey’s cartography collection and from there into a Zazzle poster collection before winding up bouncing around Tumblr.

In all that bouncing, the sky hasn’t changed a bit.
