A real piece of art made with passion and detailed with professionalism.

There's a Moon in the Sky (Called the Moon)


There's a moon in the sky
It's called the moon
And everybody is there, including,
Saturn, Mercury
Saturn, Venus
Saturn, Mars
Saturn, Jupiter
The Van Allen Belt

Roll-roll-roll-roll-rollin' in Andromeda
Won-ton-ton-ton rama-in-Andromeda

There's too many rings---This is the Space Age
There's too many things---This is the Space Age
Just ain't no atmosphere tonight

If you're lucky you get to ride in a gold meteorite
If you're not, you get a mouth, a mouthful of red Kryptonite
You better move over
Here comes a Super-nova
Kryptonite- - -
Destination moon

If you're in outer space
Don't feel out of place
'cause there are thousands of others like you
Others like you
Others like you

Well there's a moon, it's in the sky
It's called the moon
And everybody is there 'cluding
'ranus
Neptune
'ranus
Pluto
Destination moon

Many gamma rays around it
Van Allen Belt surrounds it
This is the Space Age
Please don't worry
This is the Space Age
Just don't worry
This is the Space Age
Others like you
Ahhh ahhh....

Absolutely superb   

Unfortunately lacks atmosphere
Love the light/shadow extremes.   
With air at a premium, with what do I fill the tyres?

[Robert Zeugin]

Thanks for the fun track!
Great tribute to those brave astronauts.
Has anybody checked to see if anything might be lurking in one of those craters?

Hi  Luna !

I make a little correction on the pressed pictures from Sun and Earth. Now they looking "round" and the picture from earth has a bit better resolution.

All Credits goes to you. Only unzipped the files to your "moon" folder.

I got 3 screenshots for see the effect. It looks better from inside GPL.

Greetings

Achim

P.S.: And thanks for your great track.    We will have a funrace on this sunday there.

Setup???? I can't even start my engine due to the lack of oxygen!

[JohnDiFool]

Can we alter the physics so that gravity is 1/6th that of Earth and there's no air (and thus no drag-infinite acceleration until you achieve escape velocity?).
