Filmmakers Wylie Overstreet, Alex Gorosh and a few of their friends took on a hugely creative, and impressive, task of fittingly creating a to-scale model of our solar system in a 3.5-mile patch of desert known for hosting one of the most artistic festivals in the U.S.: Burning Man Festival.
Gorosh and Overstreet documented the process and techniques they used to create this massive model utilizing a mix of technology and agricultural techniques including drones, GPS coordinates, electrical lighting, a click wheel to measure distance and a makeshift farming harrow to create their model within a short 36 hours.
Gorosh and Overstreet’s video is a must watch on just how far apart we are from our celestial cousins using a patch of our Earth itself as the model, along with a video documenting everything that went into creating the model, below:
