"With a successful distribution of the pilot [Josh Bernhard and Bracey Smith] are hunting for the donors and sponsors that will make the continuation of the show possible. The show's pilot was shot for just $6000, raised through the micro-funding platform Kickstarter.

"Astronomers at the University of Sheffield have managed to record for the first time the eerie musical harmonies produced by the magnetic field in the outer atmosphere of the sun. They found that huge magnetic loops that have been observed coiling away from the outer layer of the sun's atmosphere, known as coronal loops, vibrate like strings on a musical instrument. In other cases they behave more like soundwaves as they travel through a wind instrument. Using satellite images of these loops, which can be over 60,000 miles long, the scientists were able to recreate the sound by turning the visible vibrations into noises and speeding up the frequency so it is audible to the human ear ..."
