New Engendro in town!

Pagani Zonda Aether during the 2018 Pagani Raduno

Listening to the audio version of 'A Short History Of Everything', I've been struck by the way we cling to ideas so arcane and wonderful, but also fanciful and flawed. The building of evidence that counters such ideas only serve to make us cling to them more steadfastly, like limpets to the hull of a ship.

 

The belief in luminiferous aether allowed the physicists of the time to account for how light travelled across space. The name literally means the transmitting of light...and believing light only existed in wave form, the aether provided a medium in which the light waves could oscillate their way around empty space.

 

More than just a quaint Victorian idea, to me it shows how limited our understanding of the world, the universe and ourselves can be. But what a thought.

 

This is how I imagine the aether would looked as it pulsed and shimmered in our skies. Vast aeons of the stuff.

Aether; a neo-classic space hoverbike inspired by 'Red Planet'.

Since I built the Tesseract, I've wanted to build the other Infinity Gems/Stones as well and the Aether seemed like the easier choice for this year.

 

It's tiled on the top and bottom and pops open easily to switch out the 9v battery that runs the extremely bright light inside.

This model is an add-on to my cockpit cutaway section I built in September 2023. I‘ve had plans for more spaceship interiors since then, and this was one of the first ideas on the list.

There’s some nice stickers and details on here, and the ALIEN inspiration is becoming more apparent. I also played around with some different lighting, to get a really isolated and cold feel.

 

I‘ll be uploading some standalone pictures of the new module later on.

On year 1872, Dr Thaddeus Von Shrapnell invented the Trans-Aether Steam Rocket and succeded in the first interplanetary trip to Mars. During this travel, he accidentally discovered the martian inhabitants and the Steam-o-lite.

Upon his return, the Prussian empire appropriated his invention and ordered execution of his friend, Professor Digginson.

This threw him into a deep depression and a fierce hatred for the Earth and its inhabitants. Now, he's preparing his return...
