Equally good was the visual effects and when these two factors met together it created something majestic to say the least. Much like the famous "pale blue dot" image captured by Voyager 1 in 1990, we are but a point of light when viewed from the furthest planet in the solar system.

An artist's illustration of a thin disc embedded in a supermassive black hole at the center of spiral galaxy NGC 3147, 130 million light-years away. A classical nova occurs when a white dwarf star gains matter from its secondary star (a red dwarf) over a period of time, causing a thermonuclear reaction on the surface that eventually erupts in a single visible outburst. That's a result of what astronomers call "strong gravitational lensing." This illustration shows a black hole, similar to the one in V404 Cygni, devouring material from an orbiting star.
