While this 1962 issue boldly promised a look inside the first-ever space station, the “gigantic inflated donut” portrayed in red and black against a starry sky by painter Ray Pioch never made it into orbit. Goodyear claimed its full-scale prototype in Akron, Ohio, could be a working space station by 1965. The first actual live-in lab in space, however, didn’t lift off until 1971, when the Russian Salyut 1 entered orbit. The US would follow in 1973 with Skylab, which unfortunately lacked the whimsy of this inflatable design.
