Seems that the meteors are growing larger out of the dusty surroundings.
The light rays make it look like they are covering a sun-like object.  And I
like the green glowing area because it has holes in it, although I couldn't
see if it were in the background or not.
I think if the camera got all the way to the surface of the planetoid then
when this loops it would have better effect.
