I'm pretty sure I also originally saw these images in another 1977 book I checked out from the library as a kid, Colonies in Space: A Comprehensive and Factual Account of the Prospects for Human Colonization of Space, by T. A. Heppenheimer. Here's a link to a 2017 reprint edition: https://www.amazon.com/Colonies-Space-Comprehensive-Prospects-Colonization/dp/0811736741 https://www.amazon.com/Colonies-Space-Comprehensive-Prospect... Pricing on Amazon for new copies seems to be a little fucked, but there are several used copies available for reasonable prices.
