    Nice for once to see a short film that _doesn't_ have a horror style ending, or a generally grim depressing ending. Those seem to be such a trope with short films. I don't know why.

    Excellent. A perfect example of how you don't need to cram a storyline into anything, short or long. You only need enough to bring truth. The shots, edits, music and words, wonderful images had me transfixed and emotional. There is much skill and sensitivity here: to work with such economy yet show true pacing, timing, and give resolution to my emotions. I want to say it should be longer, but no, it's perfect.

    Amazingly well done! Like others mention, 2001: A Space Odyssey. However for one who had actually read the book, it connects even the more, it so much feels like an attempt to capture some of what the end might have imagined to feel like if they had the technology to do it. If you like these, and might have missed it, the book is absolutely recommended!

      Both Voyagers, launched in the 70's, have already gone beyond our known system and are still operating and, as this film and Arthur C. Clarke's three Odyssey films and books portrayed, these _portals_ take them much further than Neptune...
      _Much further!_ Lol.

      @@billyandrew I did not really think I would find another Clarke fan here and resurface good memories, Going further and becoming a matter-free being with HAL is indeed a grander adventure. In this case I just thought it would be nice going to Neptunian system to stay for a while to fully appreciate its beauty. And there's a proposed body much farther than Neptune with a mass of many earths messing with TNOs' orbits, ready to be found, I really wonder what that planet looks like
