The Rad Planet Adventure Company, an interplanetary startup aiming for a 2045 launch, has its sights set on numerous places on Mars, including Arabia Terra, a densely cratered, heavily eroded region in Mars’ northern hemisphere. It is expected to attract some of the world’s most fearless rock jocks.
 
This large and sturdy 15 oz White Glossy Ceramic Mug can be a vessel for cider or hot chocolate ... or an advance ticket to an out-of-this-world adventure! The image on the mug was taken by the HiRISE camera on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. Thanks are owed to NASA/JPL/University of Arizona.
 
Note: This “Expedition Mars” design is also available printed on a Unisex T-Shirt.
 
In the view of Derek the Stargazer ... this mug has a lot of interesting details: a distressed border, expressive fonts, playful graphics ... and a stunning photograph of the surface of Mars! Even though it is “just” a mug, its message of unity through exploration showcases the very best human qualities: creativity, resourcefulness, intelligence, curiosity, courage and ambition, among others. This mug is dishwasher safe, but I recommend hand washing whenever possible to preserve the vibrant colors for the longest possible time. It is also microwave safe.
