Bowl of Heaven

When the SunSeeker leaves Earth, bound for the planet called "e;Glory,"e; its crew knows they will never see the Earth again. None of them can ever have imagined, however, what they will find along the way. A gargantuan object, with its own star nestled inside. BOWL OF HEAVEN. The bowl-shaped structure is following the same path as the SunSeeker, and it has a habitable area the size of millions of Earths. A landing party is sent to the surface, where they encounter some of the structure's inhabitants-wildly differing species, and not all of them friendly.
