Greetings:

I am the volunteer editor for a freely available online magazine for the 
Houston chapter of AIAA (www.aiaa-houston.org). I'm also an avid open source 
user and developer, and POV-Ray fan. The about-to-be released issue features 
a large article (a Survey, actually) on Open Source software, and I have 
mentioned POV-Ray.

I would like to illustrate the article with a spectacular image produced by 
POV-Ray. Preferably, it would have a space theme (the newsletter is read by 
a lot of people at Johnson Space Center). I had selected "Rocket" by Jochen 
Diehl (http://www.diehlsworld.de) as the one I'd like to use, but I can't 
get in touch with him to ask permission - none of his contact information 
seems to be working.

So, if any of you long-time POV-ray artists have a piece of artwork you feel 
represents among the best that can show off what POV-Ray can do and would be 
willing to let me use your image (with proper attribution, of course), 
please contact me offline:

editor *at* aiaa-houston.org

Best wishes,
Jon Berndt

How about "Reach for the Stars" (http://www.oyonale.com/iss/english/), 
which was actually rendered in space?  It was made by Gilles Tran 
(http://www.oyonale.com/oy_en.htm) and Jaime Vives Piqueres 
(http://www.ignorancia.org/), both of whom are excellent POV artists.

Some Jochen Diehl post in  de.alt.comp.sap-r3 
Usenet newsgroup. Unfortunately I can access it 
only thought Google now so I don't know his
e-mail address but you can ask there.

That's an excellent idea. Not sure I have the room now (and I did get an 
email from Jochen) but I may look into that. Thanks.

Jon

Rendering of cosmological simulations

They don't need to be fisheyes but these were destined for a planetarium 
(obviously).

This is *the* image that originally piqued my interest in using POV-Ray; I
had never seen anything like it before. An excellent choice for your
magazine, I agree.

Yes!  It's also in the IRTC entries here...
http://www.irtc.org/stills/2004-04-30.html
which is probably where I first came across it. Even now--after using POV
for awhile--I'm still astounded by that image. I consider it a kind of
"benchmark," to aspire to.

Ken
