The Space Review: Space and the end of the future

Fascinating article on how the past used to view the future, especially around space flight but pulling in lots of other things that make you think:

The Space Review: Space and the end of the future: "To cite just the most egregious example, had the minimum wage only kept up with inflation from the 1960s and 1970s on, it would be in the $10 an hour range today. Had it kept up with economic growth, too, it would be near $15 an hour. No one imagines that such an increase is politically possible today."
