| Cosmic Conception ~ Immaculate Star ~ Lord Of Light ©2011 Michael C. Turner ~ Galactic Visions Space Art From deep within the fertile womb of a star-rich nebula, a brilliant new-born star, a nova, illuminates the shores of an extrasolar planet in a remote galactic realm. This "Lord Of Light" makes all other stars dim in comparison as its intensive light beams become exponentially brighter. Dispelling the nebular dust clouds, which previously shrouded it from direct observation, it diminishes the light of its stellar siblings. Viewed from the misty surface of a super size terrestrial exoplanet, its cosmic beacon bathes the night sky and the planet's surface like a celestial lighthouse with an ethereal light, revealing a world with abundant liquid water, one of the prerequisites for life. Three of the primary planet's satellite companions traverse the nebular background creating a dramatic otherworldly scene that may be far more common than rare according to modern cosmological data. Sentient beings, across space and time, witnessing such a Cosmic Conception would assuredly proclaim this Lord of Light an Immaculate Star. "He Determines The Number Of Stars And Calls Them Each By Name." Psalm 147:4 (NIV) Michael C. Turner * Christmas * Anno Domini * 2011 Cosmic Conception ~ Immaculate Star ~ Lord Of Light is number 21 in “Christmas In The Stars” limited edition series by Michael C. Turner * ©2011 |
