By the end of WWII & public knowledge of the V2 rockets, the mass audience "knew" what a spaceship was supposed to look like. The colorful dirigible inspired designs of the 1920s & 30s that launched & landed horizontally succumbed to the vertical sleek steel finned shafts of the late 40s & 1950s. Only in the last few decades have fictional spaceships re-acquired their imaginative look.<br /> <br />Still, MYSTA was a good (albeit not great) example of the classic space opera.buzzhttp://www.BuzzDixon.comnoreply@blogger.com
