Description

Jericho IV is a planet rich in a highly reflective mineral. The mining operation here runs 24 hours a day. The surface of this planet reveals only a hint of the mineral lit by a rising, extremely distant, sun. The very thick atmosphere inhibits much of the light from illuminating the planet and this is as bright as the daytime here gets. On the horizon, one can view the two giant planets, Jericho I and Jericho III. The fourth planet, Jericho II is to the back of the viewer. Enjoy and thanks for viewing and commenting. Mining operation structures modeled with Bryce primitives. Resized, sharpened and signature with Paint.Net
