"Its massive J-type replusor engines straining against the intense
gravity field, a Murch-class Explorer ship from Berean 5 carries out its
primary mission: close-quarter research on a Red Giant in the M-7
globular cluster."

...or some such nonsense.

Hmmm...  Placed atop a tall cylinder, it could also have been a
streetlight, such as the ones used on parking lots. Just replace the
flames with light_sources and you're done.

Now that I think of it, one of the space ships in Star Wars *was*
