Space Art – The Return to Abalakin

The Return to Abalakin

The Return to Abalakin by Alexander Preuss is a nice piece of computer graphics depicting life aboard a future giant torus circling the earth. Nicely done, but a bit too back-to-the-womb. Shame if one of those depicted struts ever were to fail.

Whew…thank goodness that the design was completed in time to provide a way to escape Earth as per the recent urging by Stephen Hawking viz “Move to new planet“…

I wouldn’t mind traveling in one of these things, provided it had those personal carts they had in WALL-E.

Yeah, they need to brighten up that ceiling a little bit. Maybe get some murals going?
