About This Design

Starry Wingtip of Small Magellanic Cloud Throw Blanket

Starry Wingtip of Small Magellanic Cloud Throw Blanket

Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series The tip of the "wing" of the Small Magellanic Cloud galaxy is dazzling in this new view from NASA's Great Observatories. The Small Magellanic Cloud, or SMC, is a small galaxy about 200,000 light-years way that orbits our own Milky Way spiral galaxy. The colours represent wavelengths of light across a broad spectrum. X-rays from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory are shown in purple; visible-light from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope is coloured red, green and blue; and infrared observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope are also represented in red. The spiral galaxy seen in the lower corner is actually behind this nebula. Other distant galaxies located hundreds of millions of light-years or more away can be seen sprinkled around the edge of the image. The SMC is one of the Milky Way's closest galactic neighbours. Even though it is a small, or so-called dwarf galaxy, the SMC is so bright that it is visible to the unaided eye from the Southern Hemisphere and near the equator. Many navigators, including Ferdinand Magellan who lends his name to the SMC, used it to help find their way across the oceans. image code: wismcg Image credit: NASA/CXC/JPL-Caltech/STScI

I ordered 3 throw rugs for my children for Christmas. Ordering was very easy and arrived very quickly. Over all I was delighted with the quality but thought the throw rug looked more like a floor mat but was still very nice. The kids loved them! Mostly the printing was very good but a small amount of photos had a ‘grainy’ look to them. That could have been the quality of the actually photo.

My blanket looks amazing, it’s exactly how I wanted it. Really happy with the results as it’s for my elderly mum with dementia. Also my original order didn’t arrive and zazzle were straight into it and re- sent out another blanket. Excellent company to deal with, I highly recommend them. Thank you. Excellent quality, the photos were all very clear

A beautiful small blanket that is perfect for covering your legs while curled up in front of the fire, or for a decorative touch on the sofa. We also think it looks brilliant as a Christmas table centerpiece. We are delighted with it. The colors are absolutely perfect. Vibrant yet traditional. The pattern retains its lovely details despite the texture of the fabric. Very classy product that will not disappoint as a gift.
