Description

Having an ideal terrain for constructing their cities, a group of space travelers, centuries ago, began a long and enduring project of establishing a colony here on Foile II, to sustain themselves for thousands of years. Unknown to them at the time, this planet was experiencing a breakdown of its atmosphere...a complete collapse of any barrier between their sun and the penetrating heat which ultimately began to evaporate their water source and eventually their total existence. The still, unfinished framework of their planned recreational facility complete with existing water and eventual landscaping is now but a memory. The glass domes, so hot inside, now, remain empty and lifeless. The civilization has moved on and its relics remain forever on this lifeless planet. Thanks for viewing and commenting...

Great sci-fi image Keith and an excellent story to go with it. I like the textured glass spheres you use in your images and also the shell of their recreational facility. Tony :-)
