SciFi and Fantasy Art: Saturn

A technology far beyond our own; yet, it seems, that even the gods fall from the sky.

Several unidentified objects found within the A ring. Composition unknown, density is higher than surrounding ring particles. Traces of complex hydrocarbons have been found in the vicinity of the unidentified objects. Hypothesising the existence of another space faring species.

The brownish lumps hiding behind some of the rocks are meant to be part of a ruined space station, however I am really bad at drawing spacecraft. The final in my series of pictures based around the solar system and what alien life might exist there. Notice: Don’t bother reading the next section if you’re not, in any way, interested in science. I like to provide some facts about the planets I draw. As is well known Saturn has a superb ring system orbiting the planet. This system is divided into 5 main rings (A-D, F-G) and two main divisions (Cassini and Encke). Jupiter and Uranus also have ring systems, just not very impressive ones. The moon in the for-ground is one of the ‘shepherded’ moons that lie within the rings. They are smaller than other moons.
