Description


During the height of the Mineral Rush, on the unnamed sixth moon of Orluk, a lost prospector stumbled upon something extraordinary; a cache of bizzare alien structures. They seemed to resemble the description, only whispered in rumors, of other strange structures responsible for the disappearance of a ship and its crew in another arm of the galaxy. Based on the prospector's shakey description, the newly found towers apparently consisted of several different, some possibly new, designs. These, however, did not appear to be turned on. After raising enough funding, the Planetary Anthropological Society (PAS) built a research outpost here in the heart of the structures to study them. Mysterious questions abound in this system; perhaps the largest is what happened to Orluk's innermost moon approximately 5,000 years ago? Based on extensive astro-surveys, the destruction was not the result of a collision with any known object; at this point the cause remains undetermined. And what can explain the rest of the moons' strange orbits? The structures reveal little about the builders and their intent, even their reasons for choosing such an inhospitable location for their construction. 120 years after the PAS built their outpost on the moon now called Enigma, there has been no change in the status of the towers. Being constructed out of strangely interlinked carbon nanotube-like molecules, they remain impervious to all but the most destructive methods of study. What secrets lie inside them? What were they placed here for in the first place? And perhaps most important of all, who built them? These questions remain unanswered. This is a collaboration with Volcomman1 http://www.renderosity.com/homepage.php?userid=642911, he rendered the terrain, and I added the goodies Thanks for taking a look, and go check out Volcomman1's gallery and give him some love :) And yes, these are the same towers from the other collaboration that I did with JKelly26

WOW! What a world, and story! Who built them indeed? Pretty sure they pulled the missing moon out of the system with the structures, which generate a brief but stable wormhole... Perhaps to avoid solar flares? Man I love this stuff
