Space needed is a project I started in my 3rd year of college; it was born out of a data visualization class. For the class we were tasked with finding a social cause or topic that merits a lot of data and can easily be turned into interesting info graphics. I’ve always been fascinated with space, so I decided to make my topic about the various aspects of the U.S.’s involvement in the exploration of space. The first part of this project is the branding and objective of this campaign. Once that is established the aspects of the data visualizations, or infographics start to take shape. The infographics are the backbone of the campaign that lay the foundation for the rest of the project. Next are the educational materials that aim to better help the American public better understand space in a general sense and provide further context to the infographics. Lastly is the ad campaign for Space Needed, the way the space exploration campaign could get the word out about the need for space exploration.
