Quint Deck: Five suits in one deck.

The deck also includes a hand rank list for traditional 4-suit Poker as well as 5-suit Poker and 4-suit Texas Hold 'Em and 5-suit Texas Hold 'Em.
The "Space" Edition is designed with an educational theme introducing students to striking NASA photos of the universe and the human space program.
The Spades, Clubs, and Hearts show NASA photos of the vast cosmos. Diamonds focus on photos of our solar system. Stars, the fifth suit, feature photos of the NASA Space Shuttle program (often called the greatest show on Earth). Aces of all suits feature photos up close an personal from moon landing missions. And Jokers feature photos of the sun.
Apart from the educational value of this card set for students, it's also a beautiful reminder of the amazing accomplishments of human ingenuity while also reminding us of the astounding things out there that await further study, almost like an invitation to us to visit them.
