Very pretty video. Digged the music, and hope the science was right too.
I was personally curious: what do the rings look like on that band of area where they’re blocking the sun? Would there be weeks out of the year that an area didn’t get sunlight, or just in the middle of the day would they be blocked?
Amazing.
Thank you for sharing this!
I highly doubt the science is right. I mean sure, the perspectives seen in the video with the rings in that position are correct, but the Earth could never sustain rings like those…
It would be nice though.
Wouldn’t we all die if there was a ring. because for us to have a ring that would mean that our atmosphere wasnt doing its job and letting some of a vital gases to escape. just a thought
