umm...nice slide show...I guess. The Black Hole theme was the best part, though not enough for a vote.

*head asplode*

Pluto's still a planet, dammit! I don't care what they say!

I'd bet money that these shots come from an original video which zoomed out smoothly, rather than being a slideshow. On some higher res stills I've seen somewhere, you can clearly see the kind of artifacts you'd expect from a slow pan.
It'd be great if someone could find the original, or at least a source.

Here are some of the original renders... I've never seen an animated version though.

Yeah I've seen this before as a series of stills. I've never seen any video or animation.

The version I have they zoom out one last time and show DotDude's 250 Diamond.

well i'm impressed! those super giant stars are BIG!

I wonder what it would be like to live on a planet orbiting a blue star... it would surely make for weird sky coulours (though of course you probably couldn't live on a planet orbiting a blue sun i guess...)

... ah the mystery of the universe

*goes to contemplate his meaningless existence ona cosmic scale*

You absolutely could live on a planet with a blue star. It all comes down to how fast intelligent life could evolve. Things would look normal colored because you evolved there. For us of course, things would look bluish.

Imagine living on a planet orbiting Albiero. You've got a green star and a yellow star.

unfortunatly The last slide showing a black mans trouser snake had been removed

even better scale animation
