Default Do you remember this book? Fake planetary Nat'l Geographic

In contemplating the *A.D.2063* book discussed on the Paleo-Future blog at
http://www.paleofuture.com/2008/04/2063-ad-book-1963.html, I was reminded
of another book General Dynamics put out. But I can't remember the title..

It was published sometime in the late Eighties, and it was pretended to be a
future issue of a magazine very much like *National Geographic*. It
portrayed the exploration and development of various parts of the solar
system.

It had lots of color illustrations. I think it was given to me by a
General Dynamics employee. Can you help me track this down?
