This picture shows an embassy from the inhabitants of Procyon A to residents of one of its habitable moons. Such occasions were invariably tense, leading to extreme security arrangements. No life in Procyon’s binary systems originated indigenously, but the various intelligent life forms that colonised this system gradually lost their interstellar technology, and fought constantly amongst themselves for scarce resources. Their warlike interchanges were only matched by the system’s turbulent nature, prone to stellar storms and comet strikes.
Fans of early SF magazines may notice I painted this as a tribute to Frank R. Paul, a giant of early science fiction.
