The Best Space Wallpapers for your Desktop

There is something both romantic and fascinating about space. It’s far from the final frontier but it is out of reach for most of us. That gives it a fascination that is hard to beat. Pictures of cars or movies are nice to have on the desktop but their allure quickly fades. Space on the other hand, has an appeal that could last a lifetime. With that in mind, I have put together this list of the best space wallpapers for your desktop.

Each listing is a website that has a collection of high quality space wallpapers for your Windows or Mac. They offer free images, require no registration and have a variety of real and rendered scenes from outer space. Enjoy!

The aptly named More-sky.com has a huge collection of space wallpapers that include the real, the imaginary and the fantastical. All are evocative of an era where living in space is a reality and are a sure fire way to brighten up your desktop. Quality is excellent, variety is plentiful and downloading takes a second. Ideal.

Space.com

The awesomely named Space.com has a bunchy of great space wallpapers covering every aspect of our solar system. These are all real shots of the real universe, yet looking at some of them you wouldn’t think so. Quality is superb, variety is good and each one has a distinct character.
