This is the starting point of a personal project on the first book of Foundations by Isaac Asimov. I chose a sort of cartoonish style to interpret the formal tone of the novel. I imagined the young mathematician Gaal Dornick, who comes from a peripheral planet of the Empire as a green-blue guy (why not? Some other pigments appeared there...). He is surprised by the hugeness of the spaceport, saying that clouds might form in it. Then, the first encounter between Dornick and the old brilliant Hari Seldon, which is very short and seems to ignore the weight of years.
