Back Story
Aether is a medium sized moon In the constellation Hydra It Orbits the large gas giant Alpha Hydrae C also known as Viola due to its violet coloured clouds.
Aether named after the Greek god of the upper air has a nutrient rich atmosphere with thick H2O based clouds that cover all of its surface.
Conditions on the surface are inhospitable due to the immense pressures and green house effects of the thick clouds. primitive micro biology exists in the cooler upper atmosphere.

Aether Is Valuable resource in the local system Humans use it as a water reserve for nearby colonies as most of the nearby moons have little water, this is achieved by enormous skystations which permanently orbit the Aether's upper atmosphere and collect the clouds through huge intakes and compress it into denser liquid water.

Good image. Are the fighters from Lightwave. They remind me of the little fighter Alan Hastings made. I like the ring. I would have made it wider.
