My Dad was an E9 with SAC (722-14-0007), traveled around the world, England, Northern Europe, Westover Air Force Base, March Air Force Base, what was it the 9th, 8th, Air Force and so on. As a kid growing up within these nicely built bases I noticed stuff and I noticed that I like creating with my hands. That is why I want to build Navy/Air Force military cities of the future.
Earth base cities that would support the development of advance human cities would be nice but so would orbital class types.
In fact a step-up from the moon base designs that are portrayed in the Star Wars Trilogy.
