NASA Visualization of the Sun Crossing Over the Moon Set to Debussy’s ‘Clair de Lune’

It’s hard for me to think of anything more beautiful than the moon, or Debussy’s ‘Clair de Lune.’

Video from NASA Goddard.

This visualization attempts to capture the mood of Claude Debussy’s best-known composition, Clair de Lune (moonlight in French). The piece was published in 1905 as the third of four movements in the composer’s Suite Bergamasque, and unlike the other parts of this work, Clair is quiet, contemplative, and slightly melancholy, evoking the feeling of a solitary walk through a moonlit garden.
