Visually dramatic and beautiful, no doubt about it. But the scenes with the stars / milky way in the background are mash-up edits (space is added to the sky portion of the base video). The sun / dusk lighting never moves once the high def stars appear, they do not rotate the same in every view, although the ground location appears the same, and the detail in the galaxy portion shows all the interstellar gases. Those are probably still photos from the Hubble space telescope made to move with video editing. All in all, I applaud the time, effort and skill involved, and it is certainly stunning. I still give it a thumbs up even though it is too hard to suspend disbelief once you spot the obvious.
