With the launch of SpaceX’s flight right around the corner (and the first manned outing to take off from US soil in nine years), we are about to witness a massive leap for privatised space travel. Who knows? In the next few decades we could see a massive space boom, with summer holidays spent in orbit. OK, so that’s still a way off, but that’s no reason to stop us from unleashing our inner geek and fantasising what is to come.

To celebrate, here are our favourite space tees of the month

Astronaut evolution

You’ve probably heard about Darwin’s theory of evolution in biology class, but we promise this tee won’t bore you to sleep! It perfectly sums up how we as a species have developed from monkeys, to hunters, and finally to the technologically advanced species we are now.

The organisation of astronomical firsts

Vintage NasaNo organisation is better known for its groundbreaking achievements than Nasa. They were the first to break the sound barrier and first to reach the moon. This simple, vintage, white shirt has a small Nasa logo on the front, and an eye-catching image of Mars on the back. Who knows? In the next century, humans could be living on the Red Planet!
