c/2 gigantic smoking ship

[edwardfanboy]

Here is a c/2 smoking ship I made. It has 4 p120 rakes which work together to synthesize a Diehard methuselah.

Can you try to perturb the spark?

I'm not sure if the following pattern is an "on topic" reply, but in any case, this is my favorite large spark from two colliding rake streams:
