And Bharathi, for the opening, I think the screen will have a mechanism like this. The characters won't be shown walking out, it will just be implied.
Ah this looks great Simon, nice work! The heatwave effect looks great. I can't think of any other refinements on the model....and as long as we have them walking from the ship, then it should be fine, cus we need that retro-referencin-shot of the crew walking from it...
