Yesterday, local Starbase photographer StarshipGazer observed white heatshield tiles on a nosecone in Starfactory in place of the usual black tiles. Someone else then extrapolated what an entire ship would look like with all white tiles. I then took that image and added a title referencing one of Gandalf's more famous lines from The Two Towers :)

Also, happy cake day!
