319-seti-at-home-dixon – A single-story suburban house with illuminated windows sits quietly on a green lawn beneath an overwhelmingly detailed night sky dominated by a massive, tilted spiral galaxy showing a brilliant galactic core, intricate dust lanes, and sprawling star-forming regions. Near the upper edge of the galaxy's disk, a satellite galaxy peeks out from behind the Milky Way. This lonely house on the cosmic prairie is allegorical for the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. - digital painting by Don Dixon for Planetary Report. © 2007 Don Dixon / cosmographica.com
