The History of Spaceflight

vonbraunI’ve started collecting a few books on “futurism” from the 50′s, 60′s, and 70′s.  I love the illustrations and ideas about the future from a time when mankind was just going to the moon.  It seems there was no limit to where they thought we’d be 100 years from now (then).   Matt over at Paleo-Future has posted a clip from the DVD History of Spaceflight featuring Wernher von Braun‘s ideas of the future of spaceflight.  Check out the post for more retro-futurist images.
