National Science Institute Posters and Art Prints

U.S. Antarctica Research Program – Outpost 31 – National Science Institute. Inspired by the 1982 movie “The Thing”. Please note that the print is deliberately distressed to give an aged, retro appearance.

U.S. Outpost #31 is a U.S. Antarctic research center which first appears in the 1982 film The Thing and is subsequently featured in the 2002 video-game of the same name and two Dark Horse comic-books - The Thing from Another World and The Thing from Another World: Questionable Research. The station is operated by the United States and is manned by a crew of twelve men.

At the desolate Outpost 31, we find ourselves heeding MacReady's sage advice: 'Why don't we just... wait here for a little while. See what happens.' Like the characters in the cult classic horror film 'The Thing,' this design immerses you in the eerie world of Antarctic isolation. It's a fictional badge paying homage to the brave Americans stationed at Outpost 31, who encountered the unknown terror. For fans of horror movies and admirers of John Carpenter's timeless classic 'The Thing,' this piece captures the chilling essence of the film, making it a must-have addition to your collection."
