Liz Warren sent in a photo of her latest "space-o'-lantern." She writes: "I carved a Curiosity design this year because in August of this year, that mission truly captured the imagination of the world in bold NASA fashion. They dared a mighty thing and they succeeded. The idea to carve a Curiosity pumpkin actually came from an astronaut familiar with my previous Space-O'-Lanterns. It's breaking a little with my tradition of featuring human spaceflight, but NASA's missions are broad and so I feel good about broadening the topic of my pumpkins."
Liz Warren's Curiosity "space-o'-lantern" started with a paper template.
Liz Warren's 2012 "space-o'-lantern" features Curiosity rover. She writes: "Bobak Ferdowski is going to be in Houston late next week and I think it would be fun to give him the pumpkin!"
