The latest issue of the publication uncube magazine, which is devoted to “architecture, design, products, materials”, is devoted to the space: magazine no. 19 – uncube. It includes several interesting articles and lots and lots of beautiful images, diagrams, and artwork.
A message about the issue described it as follows:
In our new issue, we delve into mars colonization and off-world architecture, cybernetics, the space elevator, space art, and all things galactic. We also look at life on the ISS, our historical fascinations with the Moon, and some never before seen original drawings by Galina Balashova, the only woman to have ever designed three generations of Soviet spaceships. Not to mention, our awesome animated space gifs, sound, and video. (We are a digital magazine with a very special format with a responsive design that allows for neat little surprises.) Thanks for reading and sharing our enthusiasm for space!
