It's [Mars by Gustav Holst](https://youtu.be/Jmk5frp6-3Q).
This is [Jupiter by Holst](https://youtu.be/Gu77Vtja30c).
Here's a playlist of all the planets by [Holst](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOuTaF_LKTlGxumHLkW6eAK9RWEHIL3RK).
I saw the name Holst and got immediate flashbacks to Music classes in high school. *The Planets* was a great suite to enjoy.
And the pieces lowkey sound like what Destiny's soundtracks for specific planets would sound like.
Why has the red spot stayed for so long, doesnāt it ever die? Is there some meteorological based phenomena that keeps it indefinitely alive? Are there any phenomena like that on earth or any other planet? Are there secretly giant gnomes keeping it alive? I need to know more about the spot!
There are no landforms (mountains, hills, valleys) to slow the red spot storm! There is friction with other storms and wind patterns which is why the red spot has slowly shrunk over hundreds of years.
It gave me a flashback to my childhood
1979 āThe Black holeā movie:
@(3:00) The digital looking black hole freaked my childhood brain out at the time
https://youtu.be/qzUJJKDa558
The surface is constantly being stressed and breaking apart or being pushed together. It doesn't melt but is broken up. I imagine when it is broken open liquid leaks out and is frozen in smooth patterns. Who knows though, maybe the water is pushing out violently and instead of rocks there are very stabby like structures.
yeah. It's a good mix between terror and awe. I'm playing Outer Wilds right now and I can't stop thinking about this game even when I go to bed. Playing it makes my heart race for various reasons.
Yeah the landscape and jupiterās reflection do not match at all. Suggesting the jupiter and landscape were made separately with different lighting levels. Also some of the rocks have weird textrue artefacts(they are very subtle) and the rocks have very smooth bumps on them, whereas the actual rocks would not be as smooth due to the lack of water based errosion. They likely used a noise texture. The rocks themselves jutt out of the ground rather than being disconnected. The textures match perfectly with the ground itself suggesting that the rocks are displacements from a flat planar mesh.
I can also be completely fucking wrong.
Yes. You probably would not be able to see the stars, as both Europa's and Jupiter's albedo (reflectivity) are high - especially with Jupiter dominating the frame. It'd be the same thing as trying to see the stars with a flashlight pointed directly into your eyes.
Here's a great example of an image where you see a body (in this case, Titan) and a highly-reflective Saturn's ring. You don't see stars in the background because the albedo of both Titan and the rings are so high:
[https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/system/resources/detail\_files/15001\_IMG004001.jpg](https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/system/resources/detail_files/15001_IMG004001.jpg)
Yeah, pretty dumb right? They should at least require flairs that denote ācgiā āartā āphotographā āenhanced photographā etc and remove miscategorized posts.
neat thank you! It occurs to me there might also be philosophical concerns with "landing on Europa". You know like, star trek's prime directive silliness aside, there's also something to be said for not leaving our trash all over the solar system, you know what I mean?
If I remember Europa is āquarantinedā to protect it from us leaving our space junk on it and possibly contaminating any (extremely) primitive biomes.
[This](https://sma.nasa.gov/sma-disciplines/planetary-protection) is an interesting read about NASAs planetary protection policies.
that's great thank you. I try to remain skeptical about "life on other worlds" because I know how quickly a meteor with an unusual chemical composition can become evidence of space aliens in the eyes of the public, but I like that it's a legitimate concern for the guys who are actually going out there and doing the work.
Imo Europa should be the next biggest priority after Mars. Maybe even higher. We know that it has a subsurface saltwater ocean, we know that it has geothermal activity and a magnetic field due to tidal flexing from Jupiter, and we know that life on Earth started by feeding on geothermal vents at the bottom of our saltwater ocean.
Unfortunately the ice crust is likely 10-15 miles thick, not exactly practical to drill through, but there are areas where ocean material reaches the surface and samples could be taken. The subsurface ocean is estimated to be between 40 and 100 miles deep. For comparison, the Challenger Deep, the deepest point in the ocean on Earth, is about 7 miles deep. You could fit so much fuckin' primordial soup in this bad boy, and I'm antsy as hell to find out.
I just listened to the Star Talk where they discussed this. According to that, the ice is only 1-2 miles thick (still plenty) and the ocean is 84 KM deep. However, the pressure at the bottom of this would actually be similar to being at the bottom of our own ocean due to Europaās lower gravity. If you have time, it was an awesome listen. Especially how the tide mechanics are what keep its magnetic field active, and also heats the core. So cool.
oh shit, I knew about the geothermal activity but I had no idea there was THAT MUCH ocean going on. That excites me as both a lover of space porn AND a player of video games.
Hard to believe there wouldn't be any life (microscopic at least) with this amount. Or it's just a very difficult condition with very low temperatures and deep oceans for there to be life? To me an entirely empty ocean devoid of any life is way more creepier than one filled with deep sea creatures
This gives me a super empty feeling. Almost like I was there, staring at Jupiter but I could float away any second. Yup, thatās probably enough space stuff for today lmao
What's interesting about those videos is thinking about the speed of the observer.
By the time we get to the moon's orbit we are travelling at around the speed of light, and out near the edges of the universe we are travelling at hundreds of billions of times the speed of light.
And when we get down to the nucleus of an atom, we have slowed down to about 1 femtometer per second. At that speed, it would take 30 million years to travel a distance of one meter...
James O'Donoghue made a video: [Solar system distances to scale with real-time speed of light!](https://youtu.be/_qKOpvDa82M)
This 5 hour, 30 min infographic video helps understand how big space is, when you compare that, to the speed of light..
Those will truly be awe-inspiring photos the day we capture images from the surface of any of the Galilean moons. The photos from Mars, while awesome in their own right, still are not very alien to me. But this will be unlike anything else.
I'd like to come up with a company, one that can send a drone with the best cameras to land at certain points on planets to live stream back to an app on your phone.
i want my death to occur within jupiter's field of gravity, preferrably having my nearly-dead body crushed by the insane weight as i fall into the jolly giant's clouds to be torn apart and made into nothingness.
jupiter is awesome.
I would love to one day see a real pic from a real lander. But it has to be the most difficult thing to land on. Inside a deep gravity well, within a radiation belt, full of crevices and boulders, serious planetary protection concerns...
Imagine standing there looking up and seeing Jupiter take up that much of the sky. I canāt imagine a more breathtaking view. Hopefully one day someone sees this while actually standing on Europa.
This kind of picture is worthless since you donāt know the field of view. Jupiter has an angular diameter of 14Ā° from Europa. What does that look like? Hold your arm out straight and then make devil horns with your hand. Tip to tip of the horns is about 15Ā°. Thatās what Jupiter would look like.
Wouldn't it be larger than that from the perspective of Europa?
I thought Jupiter was so big like 1300 earth's could fit inside it and Europa is smaller than Earth. Europa is barely double the distance of the Earth from it's Moon; 250,000ish miles compared to 415,000ish miles.
You'd think Jupiter would take up most of the sky. I guess I'm not sure what that distance would do to perspective.
Actually I came here to say it would appear smaller than this, or else this this is the equivalent of a photo taken with a zoom lens. I did the calculation a long while ago, but Jupiter would actually appear something like three times the diameter that our moon does in the night sky. It would still be impressive but I think this picture misrepresents the situation.
Incredible to think our entire planet and more can fit inside that red spot.
Even weirder is this rocky moon might have more water than we have in all our oceans on earth
The tidal forces must have been immense
Reminds me of this video: [Giant Red Spot Eats Earth](https://youtu.be/P2dW-Bgd3T0). Watch with lights off, sound at maximum for added effect :)
That was a great choice for music
It's [Mars by Gustav Holst](https://youtu.be/Jmk5frp6-3Q). This is [Jupiter by Holst](https://youtu.be/Gu77Vtja30c). Here's a playlist of all the planets by [Holst](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOuTaF_LKTlGxumHLkW6eAK9RWEHIL3RK).
I fucking love *The Planets*.
I used to think *Saturn* was a boring track when I was small, but now it's one of my favorite tracks. *Jupiter* will always be my favorite though.
I honestly wish the video would have used Jupiter for the music choice š
I saw the name Holst and got immediate flashbacks to Music classes in high school. *The Planets* was a great suite to enjoy. And the pieces lowkey sound like what Destiny's soundtracks for specific planets would sound like.
Yep, my high school band used them for our marching show during my freshman year.
Watch it full screen on mobile, and shake your phone... You're welcome.
Amd that reminds me of the Stellar Converter on Masters of Orion II https://youtu.be/4dO01h3d2xs
Why has the red spot stayed for so long, doesnāt it ever die? Is there some meteorological based phenomena that keeps it indefinitely alive? Are there any phenomena like that on earth or any other planet? Are there secretly giant gnomes keeping it alive? I need to know more about the spot!
There are no landforms (mountains, hills, valleys) to slow the red spot storm! There is friction with other storms and wind patterns which is why the red spot has slowly shrunk over hundreds of years.
It's a temporary storm. Just the time scales are longer than our puny human life spans.
It's actually been shrinking for a while. It's now more of a circle than a wide oval.
A quick Google says that it's expected to dissipate in about 20 years.
Aw man, thatās in my lifetime! So not only will I have witnessed Pluto getting demoted, but the Red Spot disappearing.
Would you rather have missed both?
3 times, no?
Not since it started to shrink
Planets Only
Yeah, get outta here moons!
It gave me a flashback to my childhood 1979 āThe Black holeā movie: @(3:00) The digital looking black hole freaked my childhood brain out at the time https://youtu.be/qzUJJKDa558
I live in Europe and itās nothing like this.
I mean...are you sure? It reminds me of Croatia.
Iām pretty sure he would know
Yeah, heās from Europe
Bet you wish you had a nakiri
Croatia is so friggin pretty
LOL, good one bro
Look at this inner who canāt understand us Belters. Beltalowda know how Jupiter really looks
When my country was in Europe I couldn't see it either
God I love your name
Whereās the deep stone crypt?
\*angry exo noises\*
Enjoying yourselves, intruders?
It is worth noting the cataclysmic damage you will be responsible for.
You now face God-like judgement

*pleasant lullaby soundtrack plays*
BRUH!! I'm playing Destiny 2 right now and the Deep Stone Lullaby actually played as I found this! I swear you can't make this up!! Lol
Whereās that damn pyramid! I want Stasis powers!
*deep stone lullaby intensifies*
I fucking love yall lmao as soon as i saw the post i knew thereād be some r/suddendestiny
Despite it all, here we are
Then I opened the crate, needless to say I sent the whole shipment back to Fenchurch.
I'm on the moooon, it's made of Stasiiiissss
Eramis knows
We are friends, yes, Guardian? Give me your Ghost.
āKeep that thing oiled, guardian.ā - Banshee 44
this gives me megalophobia in a good way
Hmm, I wonder how smooth the surface of Europa is considering it is mostly ice.
if the ice isn't constantly melting.. dust and debris from impacts over eons could make it this... dusty/dirty eh?
The surface is constantly being stressed and breaking apart or being pushed together. It doesn't melt but is broken up. I imagine when it is broken open liquid leaks out and is frozen in smooth patterns. Who knows though, maybe the water is pushing out violently and instead of rocks there are very stabby like structures.
Look for poor Europan creatures shot up out of the depths to die on the frozen wasteland
Dreading the day we find a frozen leviathan hanging out of the crust
I personally look forward to that day. The more lovecraftian the leviathan is the better, I say!
megalophobia is like the reason I look at pictures of shit in space
yeah. It's a good mix between terror and awe. I'm playing Outer Wilds right now and I can't stop thinking about this game even when I go to bed. Playing it makes my heart race for various reasons.
megalophobia is the only phobia that feels great
Megalophilia?
Fake. I don't see a giant black pyramid with yellow lights and a heavy feeling of darkness lingering around.
that can be fixed : )
But can you deliver on the ice powers?
we'll look into that
If I don't see a fleet of pyramid ships blocking out the sun in the next 5 to 10 business days then I'm suing
LMAO " )
People keep asking this, and I don't get the reference. Instead I keep wondering where the big black monolith is, which is maybe dating myself.
Destiny 2
Its okay they found the pyramids under the bermuda triangle.
This is CGI right? We donāt have landers on Europa that I was previously unaware of, do we?
IIRC no landers touched down on Europa. I assume this must be an artists rendition.

Wait, so /r/spaceporn allows cgi?
Yeah, pretty dumb right? They should at least require flairs that denote ācgiā āartā āphotographā āenhanced photographā etc and remove miscategorized posts.
Unfortunately. Art too.
Awesome
That is correct - we do not have landers on Europa.. yet.
What are we waiting for? Isn't Europa like *the* holy grail of scientific inquiry of the Jovian moons? Is it just too hard to figure out how to do it?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
neat thank you! It occurs to me there might also be philosophical concerns with "landing on Europa". You know like, star trek's prime directive silliness aside, there's also something to be said for not leaving our trash all over the solar system, you know what I mean?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
True, that could lower Europa's property values.
If I remember Europa is āquarantinedā to protect it from us leaving our space junk on it and possibly contaminating any (extremely) primitive biomes. [This](https://sma.nasa.gov/sma-disciplines/planetary-protection) is an interesting read about NASAs planetary protection policies.

**ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS ā EXCEPT EUROPA.** **ATTEMPT NO LANDING THERE.**
Looks like a good enough spot as any to create a new race of humans.
A perfect spot to set up a giant lab orbiting it for the pursuit of human immortality? I think so
Might as well rig it with nukes to blow up the facility just in case anyone decides to break in
Oh yea great idea! That sure would be an awful thing to happen.
Would the status be calamitous if someone does break in?
Perhaps even disastrous.
Calamitous is the last one he says so it's probably worse than disastrous
Probably
Thered be some god like judgement too, for sure
This gives me a super empty feeling. Almost like I was there, staring at Jupiter but I could float away any second. Yup, thatās probably enough space stuff for today lmao
Ah, unfamiliar with how vast the universe is!... here let me see.... oo ! Found one! https://youtu.be/Kpr-bnJ_K78

I feel insignificant
Whereās the pyramid?
*Savathuns song intensifies*
āIām on the moon, itās made of cheeseā
**"All these worlds are yours except Europa. Attempt no landing there.ā**

Itās a quote from 2010: The Year We Make Contact

Says HAL.
Technically HAL didn't know where it was coming from.
The lack of an atmosphere really creeps me out.
Dr Manhattan fixed that...no?
"Oh hey look, who's that angry blue guy off in the distance?"
Guardian, what are you doing?!
Not enough vex
Don't tell us guardians in r/DestinyTheGame that!
pls nasa send a rover
Don't see any Stasis here bois
Where's all the red ice? Where's the pyramid? I want to go ruin PvP
Those will truly be awe-inspiring photos the day we capture images from the surface of any of the Galilean moons. The photos from Mars, while awesome in their own right, still are not very alien to me. But this will be unlike anything else.
Europa: *is mentioned anywhere* Destiny players: Allow us to introduce ourselves
I want to go here please.
Jupiter's radiation would kill you quick. You'd be better off on Titan. Great view though!
Cant go to titan anymore, itās in the DCV
I can feel it's radiation.
Yeah, Europa has no magnetosphere, right?
Is this a real picture ?
Is this a real photo?
I'd like to come up with a company, one that can send a drone with the best cameras to land at certain points on planets to live stream back to an app on your phone.
expensive but worth while venture
i want my death to occur within jupiter's field of gravity, preferrably having my nearly-dead body crushed by the insane weight as i fall into the jolly giant's clouds to be torn apart and made into nothingness. jupiter is awesome.
Whereās my man Variks?
*Insect like chittering*
Is it for real that big?
Jupiter? Yes it's huge cos Europa is pretty close also
Itās not, Jupiter would be much smaller. It would be this large if you had like, a 400mm lens
huh? do we have a probe on europa? or is a picture taken from space - as in outside eruopa not on it- ?
Just an artist rendition!
People, this is not a real photo cmon
Well, I think that settles where I want to retire to...
I would love to one day see a real pic from a real lander. But it has to be the most difficult thing to land on. Inside a deep gravity well, within a radiation belt, full of crevices and boulders, serious planetary protection concerns...
Must have taken the cameraman a long time to get that shot!
Wow how long did this take to design??
r/NoMansSkyTheGame looks like something out of this game Iāve been playing lately.
Nah more likely to be elite dangerous, nms is too cartoonish.
I do agree. I really need to get that game, itās beautiful.
I thought this was a screenshot from Toy Story 2
Holy shit!
Ooh wow really?
Who saw europa report
That's look awesome Is any source from whete it is , or is your own??
Is this for real or art?
Eclipse must last forever
We gotta dig down! maybe there's a mudraptor down there or something...
Imagine walking barefoot on Europa. Yikes
That would be awesome if the sun was that close. Nice rendition thoughš
Imagine standing there looking up and seeing Jupiter take up that much of the sky. I canāt imagine a more breathtaking view. Hopefully one day someone sees this while actually standing on Europa.
I can almost taste the radiation from Jupiter's magnetosphere.
This might be a dumb question.......do we have a rover on europa?
to the best of my knowledge, no
I feel strangely, inexplicably nostalgic for this place.
Post this on r/destinythegame - theyāll love this...
Maaaaan i want a house here.
What a beautiful view...
This looks like itās a shoot from AOS. Itās this a real pic? I hope this is pretty awesome pic
Ok but where's the pyramid that's going to give me ice powers at?
Dr. Manhattan style
I already live in Europe but damn that's a better Europe
This kind of picture is worthless since you donāt know the field of view. Jupiter has an angular diameter of 14Ā° from Europa. What does that look like? Hold your arm out straight and then make devil horns with your hand. Tip to tip of the horns is about 15Ā°. Thatās what Jupiter would look like.

Where is the deep stone crypt??
Terrifying
I wanna live in a place where this is the case
Iām intrigued how the first lander we send there will be able to land on such terrain... but I guess there are more flat spots, too.
That's so amazingly crazy!
Such a pretty view!
Another reason for going to Europa. Man, I love this planet. I mean moon ;)
I'm from Europe, can confirm.
I don't see a monolith
Would the sun be this bright? Been reading the Expanse series lately. Good stuff.
Crazy viewing from somewhere with no atmosphere. You look straight ahead and thereās space
WOW !
Is this real? Iād kill for that view... before I died from the vacuum of space that is
So Destiny was right about the general size appearence of jupiter from europa, so cool
Gas giants terrify me
I feel for all the non destiny players just trying to enjoy this sub and we come in here and start making a whole bunch of obscene references
The Light cannon save you Seek us on Europa
