Our World: The Next 100 Years series.
In this graphic introduction to energy technologies, fictional "futurist" Luna Li and companions tour a present-day coal plant; travel twenty-five years into the future to examine the state of natural gas, wind, solar, and other power technologies; then jump to 2120 to look at possible future technologies. The comic-panel illustrations featuring cutting-edge technologies add interest to a contrived frame story. Reading list. Glos., ind.

Our World: The Next 100 Years series.
Fictional "futurist" Luna Li tours the Air and Space Museum for highlights of past space exploration, then transports herself and a companion to a hologram-based future in which NASA explores unexamined bodies in the solar system, commercial space flight exists, and planets' natural resources can be exploited. The comic-like panel illustrations featuring cutting-edge space technologies add interest to a contrived frame story. Reading list. Glos., ind.
