View from the moon of a ringed planet. The ringed planet is seen rising beyond the mountains, along with two other moons.
It's an evening hour, and an alien has come to spend the evening here to have a quiet dinner in solitude.
The food that the alien eats, incidentally, is artificially produced, without having to kill any life form: animal, plant or bacterial.
These aliens evolved beyond the stage of vegetarianism many centuries ago. And so, the initial, barbaric phase
when every life form feeds on other life forms for its sustenance, is now quite an antiquated practice on this planet... |

Lower left, a female alien, and her child, wave a teary good-bye to her mate, who pilots the spaceship
that is taking off. She may never see him again, as he is off to fight in a long war, many worlds away.
And this location, at the end of the runway, is the last possible place to say good-bye... |

Galaxy. As the Galaxy rises beyond the far mountains, a little alien
pauses to watch before commencing her evening walk alongside the Infinity Pool...

in our own star system. An alien pauses briefly to watch the rise of the three moons before commencing her
evening stroll by the cliff-side. The three moons appear against the backdrop of the galactic band,
just like our own "Milky Way" galaxy. |

A neighboring galaxy rises beyond the far mountains.
This planet is in the outer edge of its own galaxy, so the neighboring galaxy appears quite large from here.

Three of this planet's many moons have risen beyond the far mountains.
Lower right, two aliens have climbed up to the cave for a romantic lunch break.
Both are workers at the chemical factory below, and this is lunch hour.
A cargo aircraft takes off on the runway, while a nuclear power plant emits steam in the distant left.
The factory produces a wide range of base chemicals for food items.
Many centuries ago, these aliens were strict vegetarians.
But now even plant & bacterial life forms are not killed as a food source,
given the capability of producing all organic materials artificially....
Thus, the Primitive Era, when every life form had to kill & feed on other
life forms for its sustenance, has come to an end on this planet !

The Andromeda Galaxy (M 31, 2.5 million light years away) is our nearest spiral galaxy.
From the earth, it is just visible to the unaided eye, but it actually covers an area larger than
our moon! It should be even larger & brighter when viewed from the edge or
outside our galaxy.
This painting shows the view from an exoplanet at the edge of our Milky Way galaxy.
Two satellite galaxies of Andromeda, M 32 and M 110 are also shown.
Lower right, an alien prince & princess watch the scene. The prince holds a quantum assault
weapon, mindful of recent death threats from fringe groups opposed to monarchic rule on the planet.
Down below, a small runway for spacecrafts can be seen, along with night lights from a
township on the other side of the crater lake. |

The ring of the planet appears like a rainbow on the right, while the binary suns are seen
rising on the left. Lower right, an alien performs a sunrise worship ritual, conforming to

The binary stars are seen setting on the left, casting a reflection on the crater lake. The ringed planet is shown setting on the right. Both the ringed planet and this moon orbit around the binary stars. Binary star systems are common in our Milky Way Galaxy: About one-third of the star systems in our galaxy are actually binary or multiple star systems. On the lower left, an alien watches momentarily before descending the steps, and commencing an evening stroll on the pathway along the shore of the crater lake.
