I've been following the posts on this subject and here is what I am thinking: What if its an outer space scene with stars (having animated twinkles ... for the boot-up background image)? There would be asteriods and, may be, one or two planets with 'our' rocket somewhere in the picture. The scene would have a blueish hue to it. Its the kind of thing that is best done with a 3D application like 'Blender' and rendered with V-Ray or Yafray (and retouched in GIMP). I cannot help thinking about a wallpaper I downloaded from CG-Arena ... just to help our imaginations as I can't think of anything closer at the moment. My reference is a bit busy but I hope it paints the right mental pictures.
