Yep - though I'd been thinking more of the pics on the covers of old SF
mags. You know the ones I mean - where all buildings had streamlined
cooling fins and the spacegirls all carried blasters (with fins on them)
and wore bikinis under their transparent space suits. Larry Niven's
"Ringworld" and his 'Known Space' stories hit that spot too.
