The exploration of future technology and some of the diverse visions explored include a plane ride on one of Saturn s moons, a journey to a faraway star that is lightyears from Earth, life on a floating city, and living amongst robots. Inspire young changemakers with this book that sets out to reclaim the future for current and future generations of children.
