Artwork of a torus-shaped space station or planet
Star city. Computer artwork of part of a ring around the world space station in geostationary orbit on a starfield background. The space station known as Star City is linked to Earth by towers at the equator (white lines). The concept of Star City is outlined in chapter 4 of Arthur C. Clarkes novel 3001: The final odyssey. The concept is based on the theoretical possibility of laying a cable between the Earth and a satellite hovering over the same spot on the Equator. The Moon can be seen in the image at upper left

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary artwork of a torus-shaped space station or planet, aptly named Star City. Set against the backdrop of a mesmerizing starfield, this computer-generated illustration depicts part of a magnificent ring encircling the world space station in geostationary orbit. The concept behind Star City is ingeniously outlined in chapter 4 of Arthur C. Clarke's renowned novel "3001: The Final Odyssey". Intriguingly, this visionary space station is connected to Earth through towering structures located precisely at the equator, as depicted by the elegant white lines extending from our planet's surface. This connection is made possible by Clarkes' theoretical proposition of laying a cable between Earth and a satellite hovering over the same spot on the Equator. As you delve into this artwork, your gaze will inevitably be drawn towards another celestial marvel - our very own Moon gracefully positioned in the upper left corner of the image. Its presence serves as a reminder that even amidst humanity's grand aspirations for interstellar exploration and habitation, we remain tethered to our lunar companion. With its intricate details and thought-provoking concept, this art piece seamlessly merges science fiction with artistic imagination. It invites us to ponder upon humankind's boundless potential for venturing beyond our home planet while simultaneously appreciating the beauty and significance of Earth itself.
