'''Music/Sounds:''' Several clicks can be heard at the beginning, with a shifting synth tune playing in place. It then leads to a music box-like tune with woodwind intervals. Then, a calm piano tune plays twice, with the same interval in the middle. The piano tune becomes much more dramatic as we reach space. A drumroll finishes it off, before ending with a different music box tune.
