Designer Creates Scarf With Open-Sourced Hubble Image of the Carina Nebula to Benefit Cancer Research
Because we believe the power of love can make a difference in all causes.
Slow Factory, a design house known for their line of beautiful scarves designed from open-source NASA images, has created “Carina Nebula Love,” a new design that uses a Hubble Telescope photo of the Carina Nebula as an ethereal backdrop to an artist’s representation of the dopamine molecule. The scarf is currently being sold exclusively through the shopping site Able Made and proceeds will be donated to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Inspired by NASA’s open data images and fueled by artist collaboration, Slow Factory creates sustainable essentials that are built to last. The Able Made x Slow Factory Carina Nebula Love Scarf layers an Able Made-exclusive love molecule design and an image of the Carina Nebula, a star-forming cloud of glowing gas and dust with a total mass of 900,000 suns. Not only is the Carina Nebula the brightest nebula in the sky, but also it hosts some of the brightest and most massive stars known in the entire Milky Way. …Proceeds of this stargazing scarf fund cancer research and awareness through Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
