RE: Orbital Urbanism : Space Colonies of the 1970s

Interesting stuff! I completely agree! I think there's a lot to learn about this project in terms of how they presented all this imagery. These space-environments are a reflection of the things we hold precious on Earth. Pine trees, rivers and lakes. It's a literal mirroring of Earth, orbiting Earth and strengthening a strong admiration of it from that distance. Just a few years earlier we got our first images of our big blue planet from outer space. That was a huge shift in our admiration for this unique object in the depths of black nothingness. I think this study was holding onto that admiration very tightly in designing orbital giants that could observe / protect our first home.
