Blaster Beam
This instrument was created by Craig Hundley.
The instrument is around 14 foot long, and was made from highly polished artillery shell casings, and used rotating magnets in some way.
Star Trek: The Motion Picture has probably the most prominent use of the instrument, and it was used in Meteor, The Black Hole (John Barry), Star Trek II and Star Trek III (both by James Horner) to my knowlege.
In TPM, it was used to symbolize V'ger and the barran, alien nature of logic without feeling.
Also, Craig Hundley appeared in one of the Original Series Episodes as a kid, billed under the name Craig Huxley. I can't remember which one.
The sound quality on the soundtrack is still amazing, even compared to scores recorded much later. The music also speaks for itself.
EBOLII, you could try adding some film grain to the cloud, and perhaps blurring it a little. This might make it look closer to the movie.
Great image, BTW.
