Human Consumptionby ~Dani-Sang

Contests / 2009 / Beyond the Frontier / Centre of Power

For the Contest: Centre of Power

Back story:
Its the year 3217. The human race doesn't colonize planets or moons anymore. Instead they colonize lone stars in the galaxy.

The reason for this is that planets and moons don't have enough resources to keep an human colonization up and running. Human Consumption of energy is so large that they build continental plates to put it close to the sun to harvest its heat and light.
Not all its energy can be harvested effectively so they escape between the continental plates. This gives a impressive sight of the structure itself and a occasional solar flare.
Another Eye candy is the spaceships flying to and away from the solar colonization.
