Team Inverse Problems showcases how mathematics is used to improve the quality of satellite images.

THE SCIENCE | ROMMEL REAL

Satellite images of heavenly bodies arrive on earth as blurry, low-quality ones, and from them their original versions must be recovered. This phenomenon can be imagined as an example of a math problem, called inverse problem. One way of recovering involves repeated hammering of the received noisy image, like a rough sword. Of course, the hammering should not take forever, so we only need a finite number of hammerings to lead us to the best possible image. But how do we prove we will really get the best image, without knowing how it looks in the first place? That's where the maths comes in!

THE ART | TOM BUCK

Tom has brought together Rommel’s scientific research and his love of heavy metal music to create a digital collage hybrid heavy-metal science design. Rommel’s equation is the muscled galactic hulk pounding corrupted jigsaws of planetary photography into complete images.

    We produce high quality shirts so you can wear them everyday and spark all of those science-ey conversations.

    Our shirts are made from a mid weight, 180 GSM, 100% combed cotton (aka a great shirt). They are also preshrunk to minimise shrinkage (phew).

    Shirts are sourced through AS Colour as they have high quality products and transparent ethical processes, see here.

    To minimise our enviromental impact our shirts are printed on demand with water-based inks and are shipped in home-compostable packaging (yay compost!).

  • OUR CHANGE MAKERS

    Shirty Science wants to change the world one shirt at a time.

    We use our profits to help organisations that are supporting diversity in STEM. We do this the only way we know how – making shirts!

    You can see all our Change Maker shirts here. All profits from the sale of these shirts go directly to the organisation the shirt is about.

    Are you part of a Change Maker organisation? Would you like a shirt? Let us know here.
