I am in awe. Motion designer/director Chris Abbas used photography from NASA’s Cassini-Huygens spacecraft to create an absolutely beautiful, meditative short film of Saturn, her rings, and her moons, building motion from the publicly available archive of sequenced stills.

Interesting note: Vimeo user Hynee explains that the streaking star trails seen near the end and throughout are “navigation system calibration runs; the spacecraft uses spinning wheels to stabilize itself, and [they need] to be checked on.”

The music is 2 Ghosts I from Nine Inch Nails’ Ghosts I–IV album.

As a Saturn fangirl (idk how this is possible, but it just is), THIS IS AMAZING.
