I

Instead
of
the
holographic
blue
,
the
dome
was
now
full
of
stars
.
It
was
like
no
view
I
’
d
ever
seen
from
another
station
or
ship
.
There
were
furious
blue
-
white
stars
embedded
in
what
looked
like
sheets
of
velvet
.
There
were
hard
gold
gems
and
soft
red
smears
,
like
finger
smears
in
pastel
.
There
were
streams
and
currents
of
fainter
stars
,
like
a
myriad
neon
fish
caught
in
a
snapshot
of
frozen
motion
.
There
were
vast
billowing
backdrops
of
red
and
green
cloud
,
veined
and
flawed
by
filaments
of
cool
black
.
There
were
bluffs
and
promontories
of
ochre
dust
,
so
rich
in
three
-
dimensional
structure
that
they
resembled
an
exuberant
impasto
of
oil
colours
;
contours
light
-
years
thick
laid
on
with
a
trowel
.
Red
or
pink
stars
burned
through
the
dust
like
lanterns
.
Orphaned
worlds
were
caught
erupting
from
the
towers
,
little
sperm
-
like
shapes
trailing
viscera
of
dust
.
Here
and
there
I
saw
the
tiny
eyelike
knots
of
birthing
solar
systems
.
There
were
pulsars
,
flashing
on
and
off
like
navigation
beacons
,
their
differing
rhythms
seeming
to
set
a
stately
tempo
for
the
entire
scene
,
like
a
deathly
slow
waltz
.
There
seemed
too
much
detail
for
one
view
,
an
overwhelming
abundance
of
richness
,
and
yet
no
matter
which
direction
I
looked
,
there
was
yet
more
to
see
,
as
if
the
dome
sensed
my
attention
and
concentrated
its
efforts
on
the
spot
where
my
gaze
was
directed
.
For
a
moment
I
felt
a
lurching
sense
of
dizziness
,
and
—
though
I
tried
to
stop
it
before
I
made
a
fool
of
myself
—
I
found
myself
grasping
the
side
of
the
table
,
as
if
to
prevent
myself
from
falling
into
the
infinite
depths
of
the
view
.
"
Yes
,
it
has
that
effect
on
people
,
"
Greta
said
.
"
It
’
s
beautiful
,
"
I
said
.
"
Do
you
mean
beautiful
,
or
terrifying
?
"
I
realized
I
wasn
’
t
sure
.
"
It
’
s
big
,
"
was
all
I
could
offer
.
"
Of
course
,
it
’
s
faked
,
"
Greta
said
,
her
voice
soft
now
that
she
was
leaning
closer
.
"
The
glass
in
the
dome
is
smart
.
It
exaggerates
the
brightness
of
the
stars
,
so
that
the
human
eye
registers
the
differences
between
them
.
Otherwise
the
colours
aren
’
t
unrealistic
.
Everything
else
you
see
is
also
pretty
accurate
,
if
you
accept
that
certain
frequencies
have
been
shifted
into
the
visible
band
,
and
the
scale
of
certain
structures
has
been
adjusted
.
"
She
pointed
out
features
for
my
edification
.
"
That
’
s
the
edge
of
the
Taurus
Dark
Cloud
,
with
the
Pleiades
just
poking
out
.
That
’
s
a
filament
of
the
Local
Bubble
.
You
see
that
open
cluster
?
"
She
waited
for
me
to
answer
.
"
Yes
,
"
I
said
.
"
That
’
s
the
Hyades
.
Over
there
you
’
ve
got
Betelgeuse
and
Bellatrix
.
