Overview

This book derives from an understanding of space architecture as part of a continuum from early civilizations through the major historical periods up through the modern movement of the twentieth century and its successors. It presents the key methodological precepts and historical precedents that lead or contribute to space architecture as a discipline and building type. The book provides detailed analyses and design concepts for various space missions, human spacecraft, and science vehicles and platforms. It shows the pivotal role of solid geometry from Plato to Buckminster Fuller and beyond to the space architects of the future.
