If you particularly want to build fonts manually on your own computer, you will need to install the yq utility. Variable Font Specimenįonts are built automatically by GitHub Actions - take a look in the "Actions" tab for the latest build. Of course Orbitron could also be used on the posters for the movies portraying this inevitable future. Only those very few geometric typefaces have survived to be used on spaceship exteriors, space station signage, monopolistic corporate branding, uniforms featuring aerodynamic shoulder pads, etc. If you’ve ever seen a futuristic sci-fi movie, you have may noticed that all other fonts have been lost or destroyed in the apocalypse that led humans to flee earth. Orbitron was designed so that graphic designers in the future will have some alternative to typefaces like Eurostile or Bank Gothic.

It features four weights (light, medium, bold, and black), stylistic alternatives, small caps, and a ton of alternate glyphs. Orbitron is a geometric sans-serif typeface intended for display purposes.
