By using an alternative way, the accumulation of starlight, it was finally possible to light propane gas (instead of the rather preferred hydrogen) with this accumulated star energy.

With the help of a highend solar panel, the star energy was captured and stored in a battery. The battery was later used to create a spark to light the gas.

At the end ot the show the ignition of the starfire happened outside the studio where already more than 40 people waited to get a copy of the flame which they than carried into the darkness of the nightly city.
