July 2029: Destinations Beyond Earth: Illustrated Views of Life in Orbit and on the Moon (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999604392)

Between 1968 and 1971, Pan Am collected over 90,000 reservations for lunar flights that never came. What if the momentum of the Moon landing had never slowed?

July 2029: Destinations Beyond Earth imagines the answer - a world where sixty years of uninterrupted space investment transformed orbital and lunar travel into something as routine as crossing the ocean. Passengers depart from the Nevada salt flats and Cape Canaveral. A satellite hotel suspended above Earth offers stays of two weeks to a month, with rotating arrival ports, gravity-adjusted recreation, and suites framing the curve of the planet below. On the lunar surface, a resort awaits.

Presented in the style of a travel documentary, this illustrated volume moves through the full journey - departure, arrival, life in orbit, the lunar surface, and the voyage home - capturing a future that feels less like speculation and more like a reminder of what was almost within reach.

For readers drawn to space history, speculative design, and the enduring romance of destinations just beyond the horizon.
