What Is Domed City In the next 100 years, humanity must find suitable inhabited areas beyond Earth. In reaction to human-caused disruptions in planetary systems, physicist Stephen Hawking urged in 2017. Elon Musk, an entrepreneur, met with 60 scientists and engineers in Colorado a year later to explore Mars colonization. Turning to our own planet, a small group of architects is creating ingenious shelters to survive the effects of climate change. A domed metropolis is a fictitious construction that encloses a big urban area beneath a single roof. Most accounts describe an airtight and pressurized dome that creates a habitat that can be managed for air temperature, composition, and quality, generally due to an external atmosphere (or lack thereof) that is hostile to living for one or more reasons. Domed cities, which can be found on Earth, a moon, or another planet, have been a staple of science fiction and futurology since the early twentieth century.

Return to the dazzling world of Revelation Space with this British Science Fiction Award-winning space opera about a young man hell-bent on revenge on the surface of a twisted, disease-corrupted planet. The once-utopian Chasm City -- a domed human settlement on an otherwise inhospitable planet -- has been overrun by a virus known as the Melding Plague, capable of infecting any body, organic or computerized. Now, with the entire city corrupted -- from the people to the very buildings they inhabit -- only the most wretched sort of existence remains. For security operative Tanner Mirabel, it is the landscape of nightmares through which he searches for a lowlife postmortal killer. But the stakes are raised when his search brings him face to face with a centuries-old atrocity that history would rather forget. One of Locus and Science Fiction Chronicle's "Best SF Novels of the Year"

The pleasant little American city of Middletown is the first target in an atomic war - but instead of blowing Middletown to smithereens, the super-hydrogen bomb blows it right off the map - to somewhere else! First there is the new thin coldness of the air, the blazing corona and dullness of the sun, the visibility of the stars in high daylight. Then comes the inhabitant's terrifying discovery that Middletown is a twentieth-century oasis of paved streets and houses in a desolate brown world without trees, without water, apparently without life, in the unimaginably far-distant future.
