Prompt:
Among the scattered ice fields beyond Neptune, a lone research craft drifts beside a tumbling comet nucleus. A single suited figure works in silence, haloed by navigation strobes and the cold bloom of starlight on the hull. Around the comet, clouds of engineered spores spill from canisters like drifting pollen—bioluminescent seeds designed to take root in frozen carbon and metal. Each particle glows faintly teal, tracing magnetic currents that swirl around the irregular rock.
The Gardener moves with patient precision, thruster puffs stabilizing against micro-gravity recoil. Every motion releases a new constellation of spores, their chemical cores sleeping until solar heat awakens them. The craft’s floodlights sweep across the surface, revealing irrigation nodes already fused into the crust—tiny veins that will channel meltwater when the comet nears the sun. From his visor, the void stretches infinite; from his fingertips, life spreads into it.
Camera low and oblique, framed through drifting particles: the Gardener in mid-gesture, comet dominating the foreground, starfield wheeling behind. In the far distance, other seeded bodies shimmer—ghost comets blooming like celestial gardens, trailing auroral threads across black space. It is science conducted as devotion, the gardener cultivating light itself. When the next perihelion comes, every orbiting seed will ignite, painting the void in living fire.
