The Early Twenty-First Century II

See The Early Twenty-First Century. 

I missed two important series:

in Isaac Asimov's I, Robot, robots, interplanetary travel, early hyperspace travel, World Federation in 2044;

in Ray Bradbury's The Martian Chronicles, Martian colonization and nuclear war on Earth.

Observations

(i) I, Robot is Asimov's best future historical volume. Poul Anderson's first future history series includes an insightful robot story but Asimov remains the master of robotics.

(ii) Bradbury's Mars is unacceptably unscientific, in my opinion. It is cold by night but hot by day! Anderson's works include half a dozen (?) alternative Martian races. There are Martians, off-stage, in his Psychotechnic History and extra-solar colonists of Mars in his Technic History.

Surprisingly, there are underground Martians in Niven's Known Space. A human protector exterminates them on Mars but they survive in the Map of Mars on the Ringworld. It feels as if sf writers cover every possibility.
