To start, we have the moon. NASA has already sent astronauts to the dark and chalk-white environment of the astronomical body and has even considered the possibility of humans living on it. So, this is perfect for our minds to picture what life on the space object could entail.
The city looks like New York, which could be perfect for civilization to acclimatize to a new and, frankly, terrifying environment. When you see the familiar, it’ll usually help ease timid and anxious spirits. Just don’t look at Earth looming over everything, the endless dark and starry night, or the odd off-white and bumpy ground of the moon – because then you might panic, and the air is sparse up there!
With the teeming gray rock mountains in the background and futuristic dome-like structures built into the surface, not to mention the ominous planet or moon in the back, Mercury definitely looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. Since it’s the closest planet to the sun, special caution and accommodations would need to be made, and the rounded, almost circular structures look like they keep the sun’s overwhelming heat out and people safe from an unfortunate stifling experience.
The stark white city also gives an air of modern, rich living. Life on Mercury doesn’t look too bad: there’s a walkway to traverse the solitary terrain and even a seemingly small pool to swim in. The already rich folk need to leave this planet and its opulent living to those who’ve never experienced such notions. Venus is down the road; try there instead!
One of Venus’ many names is Earth’s twin, so the potential structure of a city on the planet’s surface is fitting. However, it is the hottest planet in the solar system and has been shaped by volcanic activity…hopefully, civilization doesn’t run into any of those unfortunate circumstances.
The tan-orange and sandy appearance of the planet's surface alludes to a territory fit for volcanoes and their unforgiving demeanor. However, humanity seems prepared for such geological fissures. The city's structural integrity seems top-tier, and its bright silver metallic exterior suggests it can withstand the overbearing heat of lava, volcanic ash, and steam.
There has been constant speculation that Mars is another place humanity can call home. Remember when NASA found water on the planet? Well, perhaps this vision of a city on Mars is what our looming days will eventually look like. Unfortunately, the Red Planet doesn’t appear to offer much in sights; the environment is endless dusty red terrain.
However, Mars is somewhat similar to Earth: It has the same four seasons but in longer periods. Regardless, that should help humanity accommodate to the planet's environment more easily. Those white pod-like homes may look small, but they’re probably cozy for the winter and durable against Mars’ polar ice caps.
Jupiter may be the best planet for cities to thrive because of its enormous size: it’s the largest planet in the solar system! We’re not entirely sure what environments can be found on the gas giant, but surely, with its expansive terrain, an enriching, vibrant green forest is one of them.
The city looks like a fun and interesting place to discover Jupiter’s unknown territory. This tropical paradise is a perfect complement to Jupiter’s hydrogen ocean! You can enjoy the beautiful scenery around you and then walk to the unique, hopefully safe, ocean. A great haven from the infamous Great Red Spot storm in the planet’s southern hemisphere!
An ice giant, indeed! The icy city with the large moon or planet in the background makes this city life look straight from a sci-fi movie or novel. Imagine waking up to this. That’s a sight to behold! Uranus is known for its icy and windy environment, so life on this planet may not always be the best.
However, the few people at the bottom of the city are strapped in space gear that is fit to bear the uninhabitable force of Uranus’ environment. The elaborate architecture looks like it’s part of an opulent city with a royal castle – medieval times meet the future!
Neptune is another ice giant with icy and snowy terrain similar to Uranus. A futuristic city with equally futuristic technology to withstand the outstanding freezing temperatures of over negative 300 degrees! The silver-white material of the structures blends in with the surrounding environment to deter any unwanted terrestrial beings!
Neptune’s city is equipped for thriving activity. It’s probably one of those places in sci-fi movies where a building looks smaller from the outside than the inside. The interior exceeds the expectations of all who look upon the structure. If you love the winter or snow, Neptune may be the best option for relocation.
With a view of a once-inhabited Earth, this version of the moon is one with a thriving city of human activity and even scientific advancements. The few astronauts in view seem to be studying the moon’s surface and, perhaps, ways to improve civilized life on the astronomical object.
This is probably one of the more uniquely structured cities. Its round tunnels, engraved in moon rock, resemble the tunnels that ants inhabit underground. If they look this interesting on the outside, imagine what they would look like on the inside! It even seems this community is attempting to bring greenery to the somber, gray-hued environment.
A far cry from the tropical forest city on Jupiter, this one is inspired by general futuristic expectations with a reliance on some kind of obsidian metal. The city continues into the far reaches of Jupiter’s abounding terrain. Since the planet is the largest, it could be a neighbor to the former green-infested civilization.
The orange and lightning-streaked sky alludes to the city's location on Jupiter’s surface; it’s potentially close to the planet’s Giant Red Spot. In that case, the city must be prepared to endure the echoes of the enormous hurricane-esque storm, but that doesn’t look like a problem. The large buildings are integrated to weather the storm, and those space shuttles in the sky are effective transport for Jupiter’s heavy winds.
To end it off with a bang, we have Uranus once again! This city truly looks futuristic. Those space shuttles look like they’ve been teleported through a black hole or something equally fascinatingly foreboding. The sky is reminiscent of the beautiful wonders space offers, with its own version of the northern lights.
We can’t forget about the city itself. It’s built seamlessly into Uranus’ snowy terrain, and the dark gray metal exterior seems durable enough to handle the icy and cold-biting weather. Residents of the city are cozying up to their fireplaces if that steam coming from those buildings is any indication!
