ok, tuned the radiosity in. Moved the craft around. The detailing on the blue ship
is next. Then
I'll hang another asteroid or 2 in the sky and call it a day.

I don't know I'd put a big glass dome right next to where the spaceships
crash.

I think that the ship's exausts should be broader and more diffuse. In a
vacuum, rocket exaust tend to be more conical with the brightest part at
the muzzle.

This looks really great! I think the two ships seem a little
too close. Lights in the domed city could be brighter. I
really like the ground texture. Seems like the picture
could use some lights indicating the landing areas,
and usually landing pads have numbering or some kind
of identity.

Thanks - Great ideas. I'm kind of stuck on the ships thing because I want to show how
much smaller
the little ships are than the giant freighter...

That's part of the continual thrill of living on an asteroid.
I guess my thinking is that the ships would weigh like 15 pounds in this
environment, so you could probably land right on the dome without damaging
it - assuming it's sufficiently durable to withstand the constant barrage of
asteroid debris.
I actually thought of a story where a pilot overshoots the landing pad, and
picks up his ship to re-center it on the pad.

Well, you might be able to rest it on the dome, but you'd have a hard
time crashing it into the dome. It may weigh only 15 pounds, but it
still has the same inertia it does anywhere else. That is, if it weighs
15 pounds but masses 5000 tons, and you're between it (moving 1 MPH) and
a rock wall, chances are you're going to get squished.
And now I'm *really* being pendantic. ;-)

Ok, the real reason is that I wanted the landing pads and the city in the
picture together. Maybe I will move them just for safety, you never know if
NASA will get this and use it to design an asteroid city :)
BTW: Check this...

I found it quite edutaining.
