This may be the most powerful piece of music I've heard in years. I was filming something in Space Engine when it came on my music player, and I was swept away by the majesty of it. I had to turn it into a movie.

I can't wait for version 0.95, and an end to framerate pops. (I know I can use SE's frame-accurate capture, but I still prefer Fraps.)

Anyway, I hope you like it!

Hmm. The new lens flare is pretty, but I'd make those rays smaller, more like this:

But my preference is for the kind of lens flare we saw in the opening of Contact, with a soft glow and almost no rays, just some secondary discs:

Still, I can't wait for v0.95!

I must say, those images from v0.95 make me drool. I see so many improvements to the rendering! Asteroids have that lumpy, dusty shape we see in real images, and the planetary surfaces are much more nuanced. I can't wait!

Diffraction spikes texture size depends on the sun brightness, this is different for every planet.
