If Earth Had Rings Like Saturn
We spend a lot of time poking fun at stuff on the Internet, but some things you find are just cool… like the animation above.
The video shows what one animator believes the Earth would look like if our planet had rings like Saturn. I'm not a master of astronomy, and I'm not sure of this person's credentials, but the way the whole thing is put together, it's a pretty convincing visual display. And quite stunning as well.
The one problem I see, though, is that on Earth we don't constantly have Schubert music playing in the background. Somehow I feel like this whole presentation would be less impressive with "Empire State of Mind" as the soundtrack.
Though if there is one person who I think could help us get rings around the Earth, it would be Jay-Z. That guy can do anything! Or so he says in his raps. Now's your chance to prove it, dude!
