Designing a Space Colony? Start Here. Some light Reading. Be sure to check out the artwork (more space art by Don Davis).
I wanted to live on on the L5 colony, or at least go visit it for a week, when I first read about it in the July 1976 issue of the National Geographic.
It's been nearly 27 years since that article.
