Welcome back to Tmcom, and thanks for this interesting new topic.

Update after watching video: This video is (apparently) part of a series.  It seems to be well done and based upon Real Universe data.

Realistic simulation of what you would see if you'd fall into the planet Jupiter. This was made using the software Space Engine with a lot of editing and other stuff.

I am ** definitely ** interested in the software the author used for this work.  It might be suitable for animation of Dr. Johnson's Basic Orbital Mechanics course materials.

Thank you (again) for providing this link.

My apologies tahanson, agreed a great resource and ideal for a forum like this, so feel free to transfer this to a more suitable section.
