Clever minimalist posters pay tribute to scientists and their discoveries

In observance of India's National Science Day, graphic designer Kapil Bhagat created a series of simple typographical posters that creatively recognize scientists for their various inventions or discoveries.

The Mumbai-based artist posted the designs to his tumblr, where he regularly hosts images of his work. We've included a sample of the collection below, but you'll find the series in its entirety, along with plenty more examples of Bhagat's graphics, over on his website. The posters are also available for purchase via society6.
