In Soil, a 1932 chapter from Astounding Stories of Super-Science, readers encounter a chilling sci-fi concept: a self-contained asteroid base drifting through space. Dr. Ku Sui’s mobile world blends megastructure engineering, secrecy, and psychological dominance—anticipating later space-station and asteroid-habitat ideas.
