Interstellar glider

 

''Interstellar Glider' fractal art and astro-image collage
by Jodrell Plank sponsor  - George Roberts.
Fractal software INCENDIA.

With the weather preventing any views of galaxies, nebulae, stars and moons, the staff at the Jodrell Plank had time to consider and discuss the potential for interstellar travel using low mass robotic craft powered by coherent light beams from high energy lasers based here on Earth. One of the Observatory's generous sponsors and senior citizen scientist, George Roberts, made this image of a diaphanous robotic interstellar craft set against the back drop of deep space. - Kurt Thrust current Director of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
