3 totally stellar space puzzles for adults

Are you ready for a cosmic adventure that's truly puzzling in the best way possible? For all you stargazers, space enthusiasts and jigsaw lovers, we've got the perfect celestial combination for you!

These three Cloudberries puzzles will take you on an astronomical odyssey, challenging your mind while letting you explore the wonders of the universe.

And just because there's no one here to stop us, we've also included some silly facts about jigsaw puzzles. So strap in and prepare for liftoff as we blast through these space puzzles for adults that are truly out of this world!

Space

500 pieces

Our SPACE jigsaw is pretty insane. It comes with two pairs of 'space goggles' inside the box (well, they're retro-style 3D glasses, but you get the idea). Pop them on while you're puzzling and the astronaut will appear to jump out of the puzzle thanks to the cool stereoscopic effect.

As you piece together the puzzle, you'll encounter meteors, satellites, and a space shuttle that also seem to jump out of the picture. It's tricky, especially for a 500 piece puzzle, but we think you'll agree that the final effect makes it totally worth the effort!

Zodiac

1000 pieces

This 1000-piece astrology puzzle features all 12 signs of the zodiac. Okay, okay: it's not exactly a picture of space itself, but that's what makes it different – after all, there are already tonnes of starry night puzzles and Hubble space jigsaws out there in the big wide puzzle universe.

Instead, this cool puzz features star signs illustrated in beautiful rainbow colors, all set against a backdrop of stars and constellations. If you like mysticism, the occult, or simply reading your horoscope, it's the perfect alternative to a classic space puzzle!

Celestial

1000 pieces

The final frontier on our list is Celestial, a super-detailed 1000 piece puzzle featuring a beautiful vintage star chart design.

This fun but challenging puzzle allows you to explore the night sky one piece at a time, finding intricate details along the way – from mythical birds and flying horses to hand-drawn signs of the zodiac.

As with all of our 1000 piece puzzles for adults, there's a free, full size poster included – just in case you get lost out there in the vast emptiness of space.

Fun facts about jigsaws in space

• No one has ever taken a jigsaw puzzle to space (or at least, we can't find any evidence of that happening). It seems kind of sad to think that puzzles have never left Planet Earth, but also, we can understand why: zero gravity would play havoc with the sorting process, and possibly the space craft too.
• Kids interested in becoming astronauts are sometimes asked to complete a jigsaw puzzle as part of their 'training'. Wearing gloves to simulate the feel of a real space suit, they're able to understand some of the challenges faced by astronauts who need to complete repairs on the International Space Station.
• There are ~2 trillion galaxies within the observable universe, so there's a good chance that if there's intelligent life out there, someone has already invented puzzles. Who knows: maybe they even solved the missing pieces problem, too?
