Local artists who plan to enter Santa Fe's annual city poster competition this year will find the rules have changed.

Instead of seeking only two-dimensional artworks and printing large-format posters of the winning image, the city Arts Commission will accept both framed, two-dimensional works and three-dimensional sculptures, and will feature the Best of Show winner on notecards produced by the city.

Star Trek Film Poster recreated for STS-134 Space Shuttle Mission (launch today) | Endeavour Mission | Space.com

Live Long and Prosper? Endeavour Shuttle Crew Recreates 'Star Trek' Film Poster | STS-134 Space Shuttle Endeavour Mission, Shuttle Launches | Star Trek Movies & Science Fiction | Space.com:

"The six astronauts flying on NASA's final flight of the space shuttle Endeavour are a serious bunch, but they've got a fun streak too. Case in point: The astronauts apparently like the science fiction franchise 'Star Trek' enough to re-enact its most recent movie poster.

Creating custom mission posters based on popular movies has long been a tradition for NASA shuttle and space station crews. [Gallery: NASA's Most Offbeat Mission Posters]

But while past mission posters have recreated the film versions of 'Ocean's Eleven' or the Matrix and Harry Potter movies, the six-man STS-134 crew of Endeavour chose something a bit more space-y: the 2009 reboot of 'Star Trek,' directed by J.J. Abrams."
