Space has beautiful flow imagery. This flow was created from 14 images of Jupiter rings and interpolation of the flow the occurred between the original photos. This created a smooth gif using 220 photos that were digitally created in approximation of the flow. This shows how science and math can be used to visualize beautiful flows found in outer space. This flow caught my eye because while simplified due to the distance from the rings it shows that even complex 3-dimensional flows of the rings of Jupiter can be visualized as a two dimensional flow just like a stream.

    This is an amazing visualization of otherworldly phenomena! I like the opposing directions of the flow and the various speeds of horizontal motion.

    I love how this GIF shows many different flows and it is is crazy that we got this video from a different planet!
