This is a collection of 10 pictures I captured from a couple of really old books, printed more than 20 years ago. They were all sci-fi books written by the great Isaac Asimov. Let's check them out.
This is an illustration of an ancient story. Greek inventor Archimedes is said to have used mirrors to burn ships of an attacking Roman fleet:
This next one is a picture of a satellite:
This one is a dark and gloomy illustration of two astronauts that had died in a crash:
This one is a drawing of an astronaut stuck in a trap that's been put by aliens:
this is a UFO flying In outer space:
This next one is really amazing. It's a model of the earth based on the ancient ideas that believed the earth was on the back of some elephants, which themselves were on the back of a giant turtle floating on water:
This is an imaginary design of a spaceship, it's amazing how close it is to the models of modern spaceships:
The next one is a picture of a black hole and a misfortunate spaceship that is falling into it:
This is another illustration of a spaceship, this time it's a bit more imaginary:
And lastly, we have 3 pictures of different dinosaurs:
I've always been fascinated by Sci-Fi stories and pictures. When I was a kid, I used to collect every nice picture that I found in magazines and newspapers. It has always given me this feeling that we are living in a fantastic world, and we can make it even more magical by the power of our imagination.
