SuperEpic this was really good, I really like the characters.

I enjoyed the serenity of all actors ! bravo ! I applaud the use of science fact & theory (at least the onces I am familiar with). As you emphasized that dreams and visions of a universe with planets & stars, so do I hope that all those who are aware of the flat earth imagine and create a glorious future where men and women can travel into space : to infinity and beyond..... NOTE: For the 1st time since long the lead character showed me beauty, heart, empathy and above these trust which I crave to posses in my life right now. Marvelous, splendid - I am and I am not , there never was a question.

*you're

Did you ever mention this on the Kickstarter campaign? I don't recall ever hearing about a release. Happy I followed up on my own.

That is so stupid it's funny...;)

It has nothing to do with weather you are smart enough or not. You can't figure it out because the movie's were written and/ or directed bad.

Most of these kind of movies, I get but not this one. It has nothing to do with being stupid. Don't put yourself down like that. Maybe I'm reading to much into your comment but I hate hearing someone say that they're stupid in any form or fashion. It could be the way it was written that made it unclear. I'm not sure.

What it means is that the film maker failed at their primary task: communication.

Me too!

Deception975 what??!! That’s not what happened at all ... wait..lol are u joking?

Definitely close Jeff! :)

Thanks so much for your kind words! This isn't the last you'll see of AETHER :)

Thanks for your honest criticism! It’s great to hear that you’ll come back to it to dig deeper. Reactions like yours are also super valuable when it comes to creating more content. Thank you for watching!

Thanks for watching Ross!

You’re hitting a lot of right notes :) Maybe take a look at the photos again, Daniel, Parker, and someone else definitely are connected. Thanks so much for watching!

It is also impossible for a body with any mass to approach the speed of light, due to the quantity of energy required.

It's not his son, it's his sister that has now become his brother in this multiverse.

@@SuperEpicJBJ Yes, I caught that right when the second picture is shown. I was like, what happened, it was a girl before with long hair, now its a dude or at least a girl with short hair. A sex change? idk

No it’s an alter universe I think that’s what it’s called. Instead of having a sister who died he had a brother Daniel who lived

Thanks for watching Manuel! Glad you enjoyed the subjects explored.

@@SuperEpicJBJ any news on this? 🙂 just found you and am really looking forward to a sequel!

Thanks for your critique and thanks for watching Daniel!

That’s great to hear! Thanks for watching George!

Actually science has proven that physics is a real thing. It's completely natural.

Somewhere or somewhen deffenetly 😉

Thought the same😂

Me too

I might be able to help. The counter on the ship was at .999999C with C representing the speed of light and once they hit light speed they actually made it into the other universe that had time flowing backwards or in a different direction at least making his brother (who passed away in his regular timeline) now be alive and in his spot because maybe he died instead in that universe. The big hints to this are them talking about different universes right next to each other, but flowing completely different rates of time and the other hint was the dream he had finally came reality and his friends were there at the end looking up at the spaceship the AETHER get destroyed. So they now live in this new timeline.

It is quite the paradox indeed :) AETHER was specifically created not to “hand-hold” the audience, but hopefully there are enough clues to piece things together with repeat viewings. Thank you for watching, and thanks so much for your comment!

Dumb

@@SuperEpicJBJ aight. So just give me the answer?

Yes, quite addicting :) Thanks for watching John, happy you enjoyed it!

Billy Andrew Awesome, thanks for chiming in! There are clues peppered throughout the short which suggest the intended ending, but the cool thing is, it can be interpreted a few different ways.Your mind’s in a good place, now think deeper 😉

SuperEpic Multiverses...all of which could be dreams It's 02:02am here. That's my limit without sleep. Lol.

Billy Andrew Lol, well that’s reasonable

Thanx for watching! We hope so too!

One clue, Daniel is related to William Parker :) Thanks for watching

Ooh, great interpretation! We’ll throw you a small hint for clarity’s sake, REEVS definitely isn’t Daniel, but that would have made for a cool twist. Thanks for watching!

ursaltydog well, yeah of course. I was just about to say that. *cough*

I was contemplating such a world, and how that appear, as I read your comment. Agree. Bizarre to imagine

👍👍

Yes this was my suspicion also, that one crew member had already jumped a universe. (Yes have read a lot of sci-fi in my days so the idea came naturally.) Then to set up the Aether mission again to make a new attempt of finding one Earth that havn't been blown up - whatever. But my argument against that is that would not save the Earth that get blown up, instead finding the cause. The dialog where they discussed the physics about relativistic travel could have been done a bit better, it's one thing to simplify, but it can be done a bit too much - as is the case here. The lucid dream idea could have been connected to the hypothesis of the quantum brain also, making the case for that stronger. (Nothing to say it's correct, but good scifi do indeed take possible new ideas and bring it into the story.) The acting is superb, even when not saying anything Grey standing there looking uneasy about the situation, speak volumes. I did interpret the ending as another Lucid dream, and the story to be open ended - not knowing if they failed or not. That ... I liked a lot! Thumbs up ofc. ;)

Usagiynami Thanx for checking us out!!

Thanks for watching Bruce! Very imaginative interpretation of the ending, you might be hitting the mark on a few things ;) As for the “level of consciousness” quote, it can be interpreted as one has to go beyond their original frame of thought in order to move past a problem thought of as impossible. While still a generalization, applied to the world of science and physics, it seems to hold more weight. And for the mission, it was always a risk. There wasn’t a guarantee that they would travel 200 years forward and find the data they need, remember when Grey said that Halprin (the organization they work for) was “being optimistic” because of historical precedent with the “luminiferous aether”. If the data wasn’t there when they arrived...well they’d have another decision to make wouldn’t they? :) Thanks for your comment!

Cool, thanks for the reply. I really enjoyed this!

Thanx for watching! A lot of cool ideas. Here’s a few bones - Parker and the previous Captain were siblings, the picture is of them as children. -In the world of the film (based on science fact) time is symmetrical. If things are always moving forward, there must be a place where time is naturally moving backwards. You can’t change the past but maybe you can find a universe with a different past. The Big Bang could’ve perhaps created multiple universes....so maybe anything sent from other universes register as very old...food for thought :)

"FTL travel is in fact possible due to relativity being based on faulty data." You just made that up. I suppose you also believe the Earth is flat.

And you can catch a bird by sprinkling salt on it's tail.

Really love what you interpreted through our film :)

Blair T. Longley Hey, thanks for watching! Let us know the thoughts that stuck with you from the dialogue :)

Were you trying to use as many words starting with "e" as possible? If not, your vocabulary is amazing!

How can someone disprove the multiverse theory? :D

Balf82 the same way they were trying to prove it, the math. Physics is all about the math and when the result is 50 times out of the expectation then the math is busted and so is the theory.

Where did you read the article. Iam curious. I never heard of such a accomplishment. And it sounds silly :D . Like you could prove or disprove something like multiverse :) .

Joshua Jones Thanks for checking it out Joshua! 😁🤘🏾

Lol.

Joshua Jones pointless garbage

slayer 1 I’m no scientist but aren’t you refuting e=mc2? I’m pretty sure one of the guidelines of physics is the faster you go the heavier you get. As soon as you get close to C and you give something a push, that energy has to go somewhere and it goes to mass.

I think my conversation applied to inertial Mass which is like the faster something goes the more of an impact it makes as if to assimilate the object being bigger because of the impact via the speed thus the term inertial Mass so Masters increase with speed accordingly

@@JasonGuySmiley it is not so much E E equals MC square as much as the explanation of Relativity that is most valid not so much the formula itself it is an indirect relation to that which is above is as below relatively speaking if the roots of the plant are not healthy the rest of the plant won't be healthy at all either and vice versa basic relativity

Bob Spencer One word is better than no words. Thanks for watching!

Rather or not any nor all agree on anything makes reality what it is.

Divaz Rize Through Artistic Expression Thanx for checking out the film and an even bigger thanx for your positive words! :)

Thanks for watching Cosmic Surfer!What a fitting name :)

SuperEpic Thank you.I have been obsessed with the thoughts of exploring the vast cosmos since my childhood..My dreams are mostly about some new worlds and dimensions.So i came up with the name..Once in my dream when i was trapped in another dimension,one bearded man said”if you are not there then you are somewhere else”This scared the shit out of me ,hhaha ,instantly thought if i was dead.

Cosmic Surfer Stuff like that is always incredible! Scarily realistic dreams were a huge inspiration for the creation of this film. Sometimes it’s hard not to welcome the thought that dreams are a peek into another possible universe, a non-physical exploration of the cosmos.
