Guess the City 117

Do you know what city this is?

So many choices! Too difficult!

Question: When did the Ionians and the Coruscantians invent the bicycle? And do they have a neverending thread about them?

It is a trick question. The correct answer is Gfflauvbnaunntym, on the Jupiter moon of Io, however, the year is 2247. This is a re-creation of an ancient piece of architecture from the mother planet.

Ahhhhhh!

Thankfully, I see mid-20th century, space-age Soviet architectural hyberbole is not dead!

Now what to do with Block 37????? ;-)

 

[SkeLeton]

The russians conquered Io? Oh nos!

Yes, yes! Now I know why I was confused - I thought the year was 2147. Hmmph. What do I know?

Oops. Didn't notice that it was one of the choices, or even that there were choices. Was feeling so smug that I figured it out. Anyway, Io isn't that sunny.

I was thinking it was the moon. We did land on the moon didn't we?

 

[The Irish One]

It is in fact, Solaris.

I either fell asleep during or skipped
alien? spacecraft recognition class.
that is a spacecraft, right.

it's the city from the tv show married with children, you know, when the fountain goes on in the beginning. The giant monument is of course a spaceship which landed for tourism.
