The Beauty of Space

Description

The fascination of the scale of our universe has driven me zu animate at first a camera-flight around the moon which is also the furthest place mankind has ever been away from earth. The possibilities of Krakatoa drove me even further to animate some nebulas with the use of absorption and emission channels as well as texture-coordinates over gradient-textures that affected the color of the particles.

It was really hard to figure out what are the best settings in magma-modifier and of course in FumeFx for the simulations. I guess I'll make a second part of this project in the near future.
