For this reason, many people have called Bucky Fuller a "visionary" who inspired others to think globally. Illustrations: A Showcase of Astonishing Spaceship Concepts Man’s fixation and curiosity regarding space and all heavenly bodies have been pronounced over the years. Through his speeches and lecture, Bucky tried to convince people to take the initiative to develop comprehensive design science thinking to begin to address global problems such as poverty, inadequate housing, and unequal distribution of resources.
In his 1983 book, Grunch of Giants, Bucky wrote, "I do know that technologically humanity now has the opportunity, for the first time in its history, to operate our planet in such a manner as to support and accommodate all humanity at a substantially more advanced standard of living than any humans have ever experienced." Bucky hoped that some day the resources of the planet would be equitably divided, and people all around the world would achieve a high standard of living with access to technologically-advanced housing and transportation. He circled the globe many times, speaking to people at universities and public institutions around the world and trying to convince them that technology could help to better the lives of many people on planet Earth. Bucky concerned himself with humanity at large, and took a big-picture view of the world and its problems. He felt that all human beings were passengers on Spaceship Earth, and, like the crew of a large ship, people had to work together in order to keep the planet functioning properly. NASA has selected 16 cool new futuristic space technology concepts for further study.
He coined the phrase "Spaceship Earth" to describe our planet. Bucky was fond of making up phrases when he felt that ordinary words did not express what he meant to say.
