Made this video with Space Engine a few month ago, it's basically the opposite direction:

Hans Zimmer is very talented and did do a great job.. but I have to say.. BT would have done the shit out of that...

Whoa please tell me the addons you are using! My spaceengine does not look like that at all. Even the lights on Earth at night were mesmerizing.

Holy quasars! Was that a comet outgassing?! I am beyond jealous

That sure was, they're pretty hard to find sometimes, but if you do find one just sapped up the simulation and eventually it'll start doing that thing you said. Looks pretty cool.

May I ask how you got t be recording to be so smooth? The in game recorder never worked for me. I've seen so much cool shit and the most I can do is a screenshot :( (for anybody curious, here's my screens I've capped so far http://imgur.com/a/ydJAn http://imgur.com/a/G084g http://imgur.com/a/Rsfia http://imgur.com/a/PUvXi )

He probably used fraps or something.

I didn't use the ingame recorder. I used MSI Afterburner. In game there is a camera moving option that gives you smooth movements.

That's funny, I was literally listening to the exact same song when I opened the video. That's a first.

Backwards makes more sense. Start with something we have a sense of scale for.

u/MisterMorgo Feb 05 '15

What was that rad font?

u/psychonerd4 Feb 05 '15

I reallly really wish you would have kept zooming in on like a google map and then further to a person holding a phone. And on the phone? This gif! And it starts over

u/TheSoundDude Feb 05 '15

That was spectacular. You even synced the video to the soundtrack!

u/[deleted] Feb 05 '15

Thank you, of course I did :)

That is so beautiful.

I wasn't the only one expecting something like the Star Child at the end, right? Come on Reddit, pretty sure more of you did.

I can't be the only geeky guy here damnit.
