Black Rain is sourced from images collected by the twin satellite, solar mission, STEREO. Here we see the HI (Heliospheric Imager) visual data as it tracks interplanetary space for solar wind and CME's (coronal mass ejections) heading towards Earth. Data courtesy of courtesy of the Heliospheric Imager on the NASA STEREO mission.
Working with STEREO scientists, Semiconductor collected all the HI image data to date, revealing the journey of the satellites from their initial orientation, to their current tracing of the Earth’s orbit around the Sun. Solar wind, CME's, passing planets and comets orbiting the sun can be seen as background stars and the milky way pass by.
As in Semiconductors previous work 'Brilliant Noise' which looked into the sun, they work with raw scientific satellite data which has not yet been cleaned and processed for public consumption. By embracing the artefacts, calibration and phenomena of the capturing process we are reminded of the presence of the human observer who endeavors to extend our perceptions and knowledge through technological innovation.

EDIT: Oh... which I see were also made by Semiconductor. Durrr! :D
Kinda freaks u out but AMMMaazzing!!!
P.S.: I've not looked at every frame of this video, but I hope, I'll not run to buy coca-cola at 3 a.m.
I want more...
For those looking for music composed by God, here some stuff the NASA recorded: spaceweather.com/glossary/inspire.html

Wow!
is a link to CERN's RD50 workshops for "Radiation hard semiconductor devices for very high luminosity colliders". On the left will be links to papers and on the right dates of recent and upcoming conferences.
