S is for Sunrise
Did you know that clean air is
the main ingredient in brightly colored sunrises and sunsets? Or that ordinary
sunlight is composed of a spectrum of colors that grade from violets and blues
at one end to oranges and reds on the other. Did you know that if not for the
fact that the human eye is more sensitive to blue light than to violet, the
clear daytime sky would appear violet instead of blue.

A sunrise is something the inhabitants of
Ever-Ton haven't seen in years.

Excerpt:
Homemade flowers, along with wiry trees, lined the broken
cobbled streets. Ever-Ton, the biggest dome-covered metropolis in the
Himalayas, had lost its luster. Workers used to keep it clean; now they worked
on building the resources for the new world. The dome, once translucent, now
looked like a mud-covered window. I'd never experienced the sun's rays,
breathed air that wasn't manufactured or tasted water from a spring.
Donning sunglasses against the artificial sunlight, I
hurried to NWAO headquarters to find a crowd waiting to take the tour of the latest and most modern spacecraft, named Sunrise.
