IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

       This is a picture of a human space ship landing on the moon of a gas
Jiant in a distant solar system, and finding humanoid aliens.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

        It_s actual render time was 1hour and 5 minutes, but that was at 1600 by
1200 so I could print it.  I tried to adjust the color in Painter 5 but it
didin_t need it.  The ship was created using primitive objects and booleans. 
The planets are spheres with aditive textures.  For the canyon I used Bryce_s
terrain editor and a custom filter to make the Grand Canyon effect.  The people
are actually only spheres and cilinders, which is one of the reasons I didin_t
get too close to them. 
The source file has 705 objects, and 8.95 million polygons.
