I have a feeling that soft terminators would not be visible on the arch to
the naked eye - too small. It's likely that Ringworld illustrations are
exaggerated for artistic effect.

I could be wrong - I *think* I used an area_light for my ringworld picture
(see previous thread) but I can't remember! :)
