Each of the 500 frames that make up this image were rendered using POV-Ray using a C# program I developed for the class 1.124/2.091: Software & Computation for Simulation. The position of the plane (and the camera which lags behind by a meager 3 frames) were generated to file using an Octave (Matlab) script. This file was then fed as input to the aforementioned program. Finally, the frames were compiled together using MEncoder. This program made possible and fun by the power of Linux and open source.
