TO DO LIST:

Beat Ktayn in Dance Competition. Become Dance Commander.
Yell Explatives at Dab.
Install Quasar in Illinois.

Okay then.

Not to contradict myself on 'astronomical rightness', but one idea I've thought of was using the spacey stuff to make a sort of art-pass style environment to give off a sort of theme.

One could easily use the Tau-37 skybox, put a bunch of the "Space Trees" (the spiky asteroids from Alaska/Omicron Delta) reskinned to be brown. A few blue-turquoise clouds in the fringes of the system, and some dust fields closer to the sun, and a few trees. Arrange it radially with the sun and dust clouds at the center, the space forest/blue clouds surrounding it, with the giant asteroids scattered liberally about. And behold! Space mountains!

That'd actually look pretty neat as an Alabama Replacement (it'd be the Oregon system), or as something up in the Taus (space Himalayas).

Yet another thought being a small, Durango-sized planetoid giving off an icy coma, like a comet. How thin and tubey can nebulae or dust clouds be made, anyway?[/b]

All that begins must end.
