Imaginary Events, 1960 Soviet Union Envision of Sci fi Future

Back to the old days life in the Soviet Union of the people is envisioned in 2017. Even it has a communist taste in 1960, but we also know Americans drew similar futuristic imgination before.

I try summarized the contents which provided in the slide show video.

The illustrations were drawn by L. Smekhov. It was very similar desire for technology surprisingly what was happening not only in the United States now .

Let's take a look at the images from the primary source Sergey Pozdnyakov .

Let's take a look at the figure of the Soviet Union in 2017, which was drawn in 1960.

The first slide is obviously the Title written as - 2017 years.

It is possible to look back how the Soviet Union special cinema device was evolved.

Exhibition of Futurama of the New York World's Fair, this illustration was held in 1939 . It was a futuristic streetscape, unlike the children of the Soviets in the work that the exposition visitors could see on Futurama attractions.

In this art, I was thinking - everything in the future of the Soviet Union is to powered by the nuclear energy.

In this art, it seems that the earth surface has melted and disappears, and what is going on inside the earth is also visible. In the depths of the volcano, the underlying molding ship made of special heat resistant steel has infinite, digging towards an energy source.

Wonderful space travel, these space travel illustration certainly seems to be very Soviet.

These space travel illustration is certainly what seems very Soviet, but if an American of you may notice.

It seems to be a boy Igor with a father who works for weather control stations. Weather control technology had been obsessed during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.

I think he is cooking his breakfast in a computerized kitchen. According to the instructions, it says "Automatic scooping weighs the necessary materials, special knife carves vegetables quickly".

Was “Space Families Jetson” inspired by this Soviet 1962 images, not sure. But it is also remembered that "Space Families Jetson" was a parody program exaggerating outrageousness, gaining ideas from the futurism of the 1950s. This computerized kitchen probably was inspired by the appearance of other futuristic meals that would have appeared in the 1950s. The futuristic exposition was held in Moscow might have affected. Not sure, it was an exposition planned by Americans who were obsessed with the future of food at that time than those of the Soviets.

Soviet own version of Magic Highway, USA 1958.

The above image is weather control station.

A problem arises here. We are in trouble with weapons that should not have dirty imperialists (Note: America).

I caused a storm, in the South Pacific weapons experiment. In order to save as many people as possibly, need to dispatch weather control stations.

In the crisis - brave officials of the weather control station stormed.

When the weather control station returned to Moscow, the staff were welcomed as heroes with the power to control the weather to save hundreds of lives.

And although it is a TV phone call, the group will temporarily meet again.

Everyone in Moscow gets a breath of relief and women throw flowers to brave Soviet heroes.

We greeted is very different from the Soviet Union's, but there are technologies that have been realized. What will be chosen and realized in the future imagined by the predecessors? It is also a revival that the times change and looking backward.
