This beautiful pattern is absolutely of no earthly use! Can you imagine why?

Having been burned many many times by similar things, I can imagine all too easily. Wow, that's a close one.

I had the idea of saving the Glider by eliminating the sparks out of the way. I have to assert, that the Glider lane wasn't as close as we thought. After 20 clicks the Glider crashes at the corner spark of the Fireship. Yes , Fireships are slow.
