I am running nextcloud on a webhosting with a shell but without sudo rights. This keeps me away from running any OCC command and since I am running a newer NC instance, the OCC application is not working.
A crystal sphere, sometimes called a crystal shell, was a gigantic spherical shell that contained an entire planetary system. Each sphere varied in size but typically they were twice the diameter of the orbit of the planet that was farthest from the sun or planet at the center of the sphere (the system's primary).[1]
Crystal spheres were made of a dark ceramic material that had no gravity and appeared to be impossible to damage by any normal or magical means. They always looked the same when seen from the outside.[1]
The surface of the sphere was called the "sphere wall" and separated the void of wildspace (within the sphere) from the phlogiston (which surrounded and flowed outside the sphere). Openings in the sphere wall called "portals" allowed spelljamming ships or wildspace creatures to pass through and enter or exit from a crystal sphere.[1] Portals could spontaneously open and close anywhere on the sphere wall. Magical spells (or magical items that reproduced their effects) could allow a portal to be located. Other magic could open a new portal or collapse an existing one. Ships or creatures passing through a portal when it closed could be cut in two.[2]
Crystal shells also marked the outer limit of a deity's influence. Divine magic that emanated from a deity worshiped on a world within a crystal sphere was severely dampened or completely non-existing once one crossed the crystal shell into the phlogiston and into other crystal spheres, unless the deity also enjoyed considerable worship in the new location.[1]
All known crystal shells in the phlogiston were spherical. The reason for this was unknown, but several hypotheses were mentioned by Elminster in a correspondence sent to Khelben Arunsun. Possibilities included the naturalness of a spherical shape in a fluid (akin to bubbles), practicality and ease of construction, and the balance of gravity produced by a sphere. Elminster also speculated on the possibility of different shapes in unexplored reaches of the phlogiston, such as cubical, ellipsoidal, triangular, irregular, and even toroidal shells.[3]
Each crystal sphere had its own set of gods, with only some deities or their aspects present in more than one world. The gods shared planes and, in some cases, shared the same realms. However, the deities from different crystal spheres were bound by an ancient compact that guaranteed peace and prevented wars between deities from different worlds. A deity from one crystal sphere was not allowed to harm or negatively affect the worship of gods' from another crystal sphere. The only acceptable involvement was to take action against another deity that decided to break the compact. This rule also applied to deities whose aspects existed on other worlds. For example, Fizban was not allowed to get involved with gods from Toril harming each other, even though Bahamut was one of that world's deities.[4][5]
The birth of a crystal sphere was an extremely rare, lengthy, and beautiful event that even attracted the attention of deities. Torillian god Lathander, the deity of dawn, adored new beginnings and liked to observe such births. Once, he and his paramour Tyche spent an entire year watching a birth from the back of a space whale.[6]
The process of birth in some ways seemed biological. It started with an existing crystal sphere gradually growing in size, swelling, and then growing apart and splitting. The two crystal spheres remained clustered together for some time, akin to faerie dragon eggs. They remained close together while swelling to fully-grown size. The spheres were so close, that they gently chimed every time waves of phlogiston bumped them together. Eventually, crystal spheres grew big, and stars inside them sparked to life.[6]
The origin of the crystal spheres was unknown. It was conjectured by legends and some sages that they had been created by deities to protect worlds in their care from the phlogiston. Others believed that crystal spheres were even older than the gods and were designed to contain their activities and to keep them localized.[1]
It was believed that Realmspace was among the oldest of the known crystal spheres. Many scholars believed that crystal spheres warmed up as they aged and, since Realmspace was slightly warmer than other crystal spheres, its age was posited to be greater as well.[7][8]
Spaceship Earth is a dark ride attraction at the Epcot theme park at the Walt Disney World in Bay Lake, Florida. The geodesic sphere in which the attraction is housed has served as the symbolic structure of Epcot since the park opened in 1982.
The structure is similar in texture to the United States pavilion from Expo 67 in Montreal but, unlike that structure, Spaceship Earth is a complete sphere, supported by three pairs of legs. The architectural design was conceived by Wallace Floyd Design Group.[5][6] The structural designs of both Expo 67 and Spaceship Earth were completed by Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Inc. of Boston, Massachusetts.
The appearance of being a monolithic sphere is an architectural goal that was achieved through a structural trick. Spaceship Earth is in fact two structural domes. Six legs are supported on pile groups that are driven up to 160 feet into Central Florida's soft earth. Those legs support a steel box-shaped ring at the sphere's perimeter, at about 30 degrees south latitude in earth-terms.[8] The upper structural dome sits on this ring. A grid of trusses inside the ring supports two helical structures of the ride and show system. Below the ring, a second dome is hung from the bottom, completing the spherical shape. The ring and trusses form a table-like structure which separates the upper dome from the lower. Supported by and about three feet off the structural domes is a cladding sphere to which the shiny Alucobond panels and drainage system are mounted.
Construction took 26 months. Extending upwards from the table are "quadropod" structures, which support smaller beams which form the shell of the steel skeleton. Pipes stand the aluminum skin panels away from the skeleton and provide space for utilities. A small service car is parked in the interstitial space between the structural and cladding surfaces, and it can carry a prone technician down the sides to access repair locations. The shop fabrication of the steel (done in nearby Tampa, Florida) was an early instance of computer-aided drafting and materials processing.
The opening day version of the attraction featured narration by actor Vic Perrin with a sparse, largely diegetic soundtrack. This version featured a network operations center with a data map of the United States in the modern telecommunications section. The top of the sphere featured a large lighted space station with two astronauts working on satellites and a woman sitting in the station operating controls. During the final descent, vehicles passed several monitors showing various events and activities. This version of the ride closed on May 25, 1986.
The attraction's third version debuted on November 23, 1994 and featured an updated script narrated by Jeremy Irons and a new orchestral soundtrack, based upon Bach's Sinfonia No. 2 in C Minor for the entire attraction. This version maintained most of the scenes in the first half of the attraction as they were, but removed three scenes towards the end: the boy's bedroom, the paperless office and the network operations center. These scenes were replaced with a single new scene depicting a boy and girl using the Internet to video call between America and Japan. The climax was redone, with the updating of the projected Earth and the removal of the space station and astronauts (the astronauts subsequently turned up in Space Mountain's post-show, where they were used until 2009). The descent was also completely overhauled featuring new scenes depicting communication of the future utilizing pepper's ghost figures, a fiber optic model of the "City of the Future" and the removal of the "Tomorrow's Child" theme song. This version of the attraction closed on July 9, 2007.
In celebration of the year 2000, a 25-story "magic wand" held by a representation of Mickey Mouse's hand was built next to the sphere. Inspiration for it came from the Sorcerer's Apprentice sequence of Fantasia (although Mickey did not actually use a magic wand in that sequence). At the top of the structure was a large cut-out of the number 2000. This structure was constructed to have a lifetime of about 10 years, and it was left standing after the Millennium Celebration ended. In 2001, the number 2000 was replaced with the word "Epcot" in a script font that differed from the park's logotype.
The ride begins with the time-machine vehicles ascending into a dark tunnel with twinkling stars all around. An adventurous orchestral theme starts to play, and the score shifts to the theme ostinato, a leitmotif that comes to represent digital interference. On touchscreens in the vehicle, guests select their language and hometown, and then have their picture taken by a passing camera.
As the vehicle arrives at the first story of the structure, it begins a slow curve. A large film screen is stretched along the inside of the sphere, depicting early humans fighting for survival against a woolly mammoth, triggering development of early communication and language to help them work and survive together. As the screen dims behind them, guests enter a cavern populated by audio animatronic early humans, who represent the development of early writing through cave paintings. The drawings on the walls come to life and begin to dance as the car continues onward.
The score modulates, presenting the theme in a phrygian mode, implying a Middle Eastern atmosphere. Guests are brought through a heated diorama of the Egyptians, who invented a system of portable communication using hieroglyphs recorded on papyrus, as opposed to cave paintings that were unable to be transported as humans migrated.
