Herman Potocnik Noordung’s ‘Inhabitable Wheel’.

In 1929, an Austro-Hungarian - Slovene called Herman Potocnik published a book
under the pseudonym of ‘Noordung’. The book was Das Problem der Befahrung des
Weltraums (The Problem of Space Travel). It was the first book to devote most
of its pages to space stations. Noordung proposed the Wohnrad (inhabitable
wheel) design. This strongly influenced the work of technicians and
researchers, as well as of science fiction authors. It inspired many space
station designs during the 1950s, even the one appearing in 2001 - A Space
Odyssey.
