I remember seeing some of these actual pictures in the late 70s, early 80s, they were very striking and mindblowing to me as a child, the idea of huge pieces of structure with lush green parks and farmland in space. They are really memorable and probably shaped a lot of peoples imaginations about what might be possible one day.

It's feels strange to look back and think how much the world has changed since I was a child in the 1980s, and yet how little it changed in the ways I thought it would.
