Saturn Cassini Photographic Animation

Video made by Stephen Van Vuuren using photos from the Cassini spacecraft. Thousands of layers of many Cassini photographs were animated to make the fly-through work without any 3D CGI.

Excellent- lots of work gone into that.
Best with full screen & speakers up to take in its full glory.

What is the piece of music playing? I have heard that before.

Beautiful Music - it really completed the video. The musical excerpt was from Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings, op.11. Highly recommended evocative music.

Why weren't the cloud patterns shifting if this was a true stop-motion movie???
