True, but that does not mean that an entirely new world must be created. Verne's fantasies took place in our world and in the current time frame; he merely added Nemo's submarine, or Robur's airship.

As for your example of cars, the "bubble top" appeared on the Pacer, an excellent example of fantasy being a part of the real world. There was also an entire glass top for the front half of the Ford Fairlane.

Curved side/rear windows isn't the example, something like the cadillac cyclone concept and ford fx atmos. The futuristic cars of tomorrow were a rendition of the jetzen's flying cars.

As far as the future layout, it is based on our worlds Baltimore. Big Grin
