“Mars colony of the future SR229 (October 1980)”
I’m assuming Rockwell International as the originator, the artist being the talented, previously elusive, enigmatic, mysterious & chameleon-like (due to his/her signature change/evolution: all caps/block —> mixed case/cursive), Manuel E. Alvarez.
Despite there being plenty of [fill in the heavenly body] circular, concentric, spoked, radial…base, colony, habitat, depot, city, etc. concepts available online - I could not find the image anywhere.
Neither could I find anything on “SR229”.
Nor whatever (if anything?) was possibly convened in October of 1980…conference, symposium, workshop, etc. Nor any evidence of some relevant/pertinent documentation published that month.
And, varied/multiple combinations of the aforementioned ‘key words’ yielded nothing.
Pretty frustrating, and the recurring feeling of “I know I’ve seen this...somewhere”.
