I don't mind youtube putting more videos like this in my recommendations.

[RealBono]

Went on a cruise when I was like 13 and the one thing I’ll always remember was looking up at the night sky without light pollution blocking the beauty above us and around us. You could see Mars like it was a third the size of the moon. Set a lot of things into perspective

[phonomancer_thepossum]

Time lapses of clouds are soooo trippy, feels like a dream

[iAngeL]

YT did the right thing when putting this in my recommendations.

[babyz]

I’ve been occasionally coming back to this when I just need an emotional touch in my life about how beautiful this planet is and can be. I know it’s kinda deep but it makes me less afraid of passing. Knowing I’ll be apart of this beautiful creation again.

[Delboy]

That's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. When you casually pick up an item in a shop and wonder how it got there. You watch this and imagine its voyage...

[jezworld]

Who else got this randomly in their recommended today?

PS : Beautiful vid!

[Ryo-opvv]

I am utterly amazed that this guy still read and liking comments to this day, this is almost a 3 year old video and he still cares about it

[g.ananthanarayanan]

Everyone is talking about the stars but can someone talk about how beautiful the lightning looked, the way it weaved through the clouds and lit the sky with blue…that was ❤

[Vizaya]

After all this time i still come back to watch this. There is something that happens in these 10 minutes that I can't explain that triggers a range of emotions unlike any other youtube video. 5 yrs on and the edit and music still works. Good job

[sjb]

Beautiful.. Imagine that old civilizations got to see the stars like that every night

[NoName-msjb]

It's very depressing that we can't enjoy a night sky like that every day. The universe is so beautiful. I want to live in a place where I can see it before I die.

[UsernameGeri]

Love how you can see the 3 dimensional definition of the clouds due to the increased parallax.
Also love how you can clearly see how the ships bangs the port and bounces back several times.

now this. THIS IS MADE IN HEAVEN

[Aqsrmd]

This is my best spending 10 mins on youtube without skipping any 10 secs

[dowse]

The Greatest people are the people who still like their viewers comments even after 3 years

[mckaylindow]

I watched this video years ago when it came out, and I just had to come back and watch it again. And it’s still just as good as the first time that I saw it:) thanks for helping us get a glimpse of the beauty of the ocean and the stars

[Mach_Style]

DailyDoseOfInternet sent me here and by god Im glad he did. This was amazing

[jeninaoliva]

It’s been 6 years since I first stumbled upon this video and I go back to it every now and then. This is my most favorite video on the internet. Just makes me feel something hard to explain.

[sourabhdubey]

Watched it 5 years ago! Still my fav video ❤
