Astro Mx is a typeface designed for the Mexican Space Agency (AEM), specifically conceived for use in emergency procedure manuals. Its main purpose is to facilitate quick reading in extraordinary conditions.
Among its distinctive features, it has a generous x-height, as well as short ascenders and descenders, which optimizes space in text boxes. The serifs have a diagonal cut to the right, which visually reinforces the concept of speed, accentuates the baseline and contributes to speeding up the reading process.
