Description
I keep starting new projects and then dropping them when I can't make them as perfect as I want, so I decided to try doing something within a 4-hour time limit (not including render time) and post it even if it's not perfect. This is a simple animation I put together; I can see enough problems with it that it'd normally be destined to sit on my hard drive forever, but that's not the point so I'm uploading it here.
Setting up the space scene, messing around with the shader for Earth, and animating it took about two hours; setting up and animating the city scene and camera took another hour or so; and sequencing things and adding audio took the last hour. Might come back to this later and make another version to fix some of the problems, depending on how much time I have.

EDIT: Replaced the DA link with a MEGA one since people were having problems downloading it.
It's not in 4K, since I don't really want to tie up my computer rendering for another two weeks.
