Clarke "If I Forget Thee, O Earth...". One of moon colonists, last survivors from Earth, takes his son to show him his old home... They're sitting in little moon buggy, on a high lunar cliff and watching strange glows of energy at dark side of the wasted planet. And they know, none of them will return down there. Not now. Not for a long long time... Please read the story for details :) DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: The planet is a sphere with layered texture and two addtitional spheres with media. Moon surtface is a isosurface (with low ambient and high diffuse). Buggy is constructed with some spatch objects (tires & hull) and povray primitives (mainly sphere sweeps :) Full source included (though it's a little bit messy)
