Asteroid Discovery From 1980 - 2010 (Half Speed)

Identical to the original video but encoded at 30fps, so everything runs at half the speed.

On your website, you mention work with POV-Ray. Is that the software you use to render these videos? If not, what software is it that you use? I'm in a computational physics course and am really interested in doing a simulation with rendered output like this.

@eyamseryath I used to do stuff with POV ray, but this is rendered using my own code, it's nothing fancy, I just write a bunch of pixels to an in memory frambuffer and then dump it to disk, It started out simple but now it's pretty complex.

so now it's 1 second per every month?

@Donthesitatethis correct - which means the music works at the same tempo :)

Some people asked me for a slowed down version so I'm happy to comply

Gorgeous ... Thank you. Love it.

@psi2hi space is very big, earth and the asteroids aren't that big :P

If this is accurate look how close some of those get to earth. (3rd planet out).

the asteroids are the red dots, right?
