Deep Space Drift

Made for the mid-afternoon slump and the late-night wind-down. One tap hides all navigation and text; the camera cruises slowly around the Milky Way, the Solar System or the Whirlpool Galaxy, while you hear electric-field waves that Voyager 1’s plasma wave instrument recorded in interstellar space in 2020, about 22 billion km from the Sun, played at real speed with the spacecraft’s own interference filtered out. Sleep mode fades picture and sound over 15 minutes to black and silence. Focus mode is a 25-minute Pomodoro that ends with the “dawn chorus” of Earth’s radiation belts and a 5-minute break.
