Homeworld had some impressive views as well.

I love this Mercury scene of the movie "Sunshine":

Nice movie, good music - but sad enough, the script writer (or director) crashed the ending of this movie which is basically stunning until the middle of its runtime. After that its slipping into a 08/15 boring want-to-be-slasher-movie with a very strange end and some large, open plot holes.

And finally a wallpaper of the center of the milky way galaxy:

Every time I hear the word "Lagoon" I think of "The Blue Lagoon"... and then I think of Brooke Shields.
