I would gladly trade Facebook, Twitter and instagram for us being able to conquer space in cool and sleek looking spaceships. 😎

Throw in phones in there as well 😅

Thank you for introducing me to this incredible artist. Wow.

Wonderful to see another compilation of Bürgles gone dreams of the future!

Skylab was in orbit for just a little over 6 years! And was inhabited by astronauts for a total of 171 days.

I love these videos. I have been hooked on visions of the future since I was a kid in the 50s reading magazines of the time. It was always so exciting to think of the amazing future we were headed to. Then, reality sets in and I realize humanity has missed the mark on those visions so drastically. Looking at the technology required and societal cooperation required to achieve those things, I should have known they would never be. We spend too much time at war and petty infighting to raise humanity as a whole.

Am Vorabend der US-Wahlen musste ich was positives anschauen…Du hast mich gerettet und ich habe für 10 Minuten meine Panikattacken vergessen das der Orange wirklich Präsident wird…..

[@Rafaga777]

Beautiful video. Thanks

Eu acho incrível o Retro Future, a arquitetura de como as pessoas imaginavam o futuro antigamente é muito bonito visualmente.

As far as transparent domes on Mars go..... :) It's not just meteorites, debris from those ships landing and launching right next to it are also a danger if they malfunction. Plus, the day/night heat cycle would alternately cook and chill the air in your dome making it expand and contract considerably. Also, it would need to be a radiation screening dome of great protective power, or everyone gets a nasty sunburn. Klaus is a legend....

2:43 Very similar to the moon base depicted in Kubrick's 2001.

[@RickOsisek]

Great video! It's always so cool to see yesterday's vision of tomorrow. Have you ever checked out the art work of Chesley Bonestell? His moonscape painting was in the 50's sci-fi movie Destination Moon. I think you'd like it.

1:25 Out of the Blue!

[@michaelstaengl1349]

Me, the time-traveller: "Hey dear Sowiets, take this fix, this would save your N1 moon rocket to beat your capitalist class enemy." Sowiets: "Thanks comrade, we will implement it. Dear hero of the right side on history." Me, the time traveller thinking: "Right side, yeah, right, but I just want my Mars base in the 2000s." I wouldn't mind a two hour video with these great dreams of a future we never had.

[@valentinsn-ostalgiemodellbahn]

Well, would be quite interesting. With the N1 it is something like the butterfly effect: The bad health status and death of Korolev set back the hole projekt - his personal problems had been caused by Stalin's paranoid politics even (or especially) against his most advanced Soviet scientiest and engineers. Korolev was freed from his Gulag sentence at Maldjak after his mother requested to do so. A mother's love for her son rescued the future of Soviet rocket science, once could say half-joking.

I still long for that cartwheel space station. Why must the real ones airways look like garbage disposals with dragonfly wings? Anyone ever seen the TV series Men Into Space? Great show about getting into space and building the station, as they see it happening in the late '50s.

Soviet Union invades the Red Planet! Would have made for a great Headline

[@michaelstaengl1349]

US interplanetary space ship: "Houston, we have a problem, the Soviets were on Mars before us, they painted it red." Houston: "No problem, write 'Cocka Cola' on it, problem solved."

[@valentinsn-ostalgiemodellbahn]

Sounds like a "For All Mankind" (the TV series) scenario to me!

We can’t live in space. Our bones can’t deal with it.
