Book Description
What Is Domed City In the next 100 years, humanity must find suitable inhabited areas beyond Earth. In reaction to human-caused disruptions in planetary systems, physicist Stephen Hawking urged in 2017. Elon Musk, an entrepreneur, met with 60 scientists and engineers in Colorado a year later to explore Mars colonization. Turning to our own planet, a small group of architects is creating ingenious shelters to survive the effects of climate change. A domed metropolis is a fictitious construction that encloses a big urban area beneath a single roof. Most accounts describe an airtight and pressurized dome that creates a habitat that can be managed for air temperature, composition, and quality, generally due to an external atmosphere (or lack thereof) that is hostile to living for one or more reasons. Domed cities, which can be found on Earth, a moon, or another planet, have been a staple of science fiction and futurology since the early twentieth century.

Book Description
"It's so hot, what is going on. Is it even humanly possible to sweat this much?"Oh, but the temperature is just perfect"Who is that? Wait, you can hear my thoughts? Where am I?"As I open my eyes, I realize I'm not on my bed or even in my room where I should be after coming home late last night. "Or did I not make it home? This is definitely not earth" I said to myself as I looked around and took a 360-degree view of what I can't even describe. "Is this is supposed to be a house? Where am I?"Beautiful isn't it? This could all be yours if you want, or whatever change you want to make to it, just think about it, anything you want, anything you can think about, it's all yours."This voice again, who are you, where are you?" I shouted out and waited for a response but to my disappointment, I heard no reply."Beautiful?" I said to myself as I looked around, "Is this not more than beautiful? The whole building is made of glass, pure crystal-clear glass." I looked around and studied the cube like structure made entirely from glass and if my eyes were not deceiving me, was also rotating slowly. "But how is that possible, I'm standing on a fixed spot and not feeling any movement, also the darkness that totally surrounds the glass building isn't allowing me to determine if the building is really rotating or not. What kind of confusion is this?" All that surrounded the glass building was darkness, black thick darkness. What is this cube even built on? No foundation? It's just hanging in space? What is this darkness? How is this crazy heat not even destroying the glass cube? This is definitely not a building. Is this still Earth? Several questions rushed up my mind as I surveyed the area I turned away from all these questions and the surroundings of the cube as no one was going to answer my questions. The glass beneath my feet felt cold as I tried walking and that just added to the weirdness of the place. Moving along the hallway cautiously, I saw jewels and shinning diamonds of different sizes and different shapes, all white and glistening, some as big as meteors I suppose are capable of destroying earth and some as tiny as just being barely visible to the eyes, all just hanging and floating in the air beautifully, all in different spaces, not arranged in a pattern or formation but still looked pretty and made a nice decoration as they were floating in irregular positions. I felt like they were calling to me and that I could reach them or make them come to me if I tried but my spirit or probably my inner self didn't agree with that choice, so I ignored the diamonds and jewels and they didn't come to me also. Although the feeling and urge to touch them grew stronger as I kept moving, I listened to my guts or instinct that told me not to touch them and kept moving forward.After walking for what felt like ages as I had no concept of time here, I suddenly saw a man approach me. He had a black cape on and a hood covered his head. As we got nearer to each other I couldn't help but to notice his eyes, he had deep dark blue eyes and I couldn't stop staring at them. While I was still staring at his eyes, I didn't know when he reached my side and gently, without saying anything, lightly touched my shoulder and suddenly I realized I was back in my room, on my bed, like it was all a dream, or should I say magic like. y magic like. No black cape, hood wearing, dark blue eyes man. No rotating hot glass cube. No jewels or diamonds calling onto me. Just my plain queen-sized bed and my dry looking room

Book Description
Science fiction captures contemporary sentiment with its faith in a scientific/technological future, its explorations of the ultimate meaning of man's existence. Kreuziger is interested particularly in the apocalyptic visions of science fiction compared to the biblical revelations of John and Daniel. For some time our confidence has been placed largely in science, which has practically become a religion. Science fiction articulates the consequences of a faith in a technological future.
