After our trip to the standing stone, I continued to meet up with Kit and Ioana , as Ioana was trying to teach us some basic anatomy of a galaxy, as well as the different types of Galaxies in the world. I tried my best to take notes, so that I could create an accurate infographic.
Since Ioana mentioned that they do not necessarily need scientifically accurate outcomes, I debated making something more silly, like the doodle on the right. However, I wanted to attempt making an accurate infographic, since it is something I do not really have the chance to make for anyone.
I decided to do something relatively simple, since I do not want to get the science bits of the infographic wrong, so I just exemplified the 3 different types of galaxies that I can tell apart.(eliptical, barred spiral and the one with arms)
I drew them traditionally, to get some nice textures, and I then I popped them into photoshop to get a black background.
I was originally going to add more arrows pointing to elements of the barred spiral galaxy, but I got nervous and I removed the, since I did not want to put them in the wrong place.
It was fun to do something different for a bit, and II hope they enjoyed my galaxy .
I think it would be quite interesting working on more infographics in the future, however, the people from physics did not seem to want or need any astronomy drawings.
