About this ebook

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.
