Tastes differ. I thought the first movement of Beethoven's fourth piano concerto was an excellent choice! Expansive, optimistic, thoughtful, exploring new horizons. When this sort of video is accompanied by electronic space music or bombastic rock and roll, I hit the mute button.
This is an awesome video, by the way. I remember seeing images from Huygens shortly after the probe landed on Titan, but I do not recall seeing this video. I especially appreciated the captions labeling other solar system objects, Orion, and the details of what was portrayed during the descent and landing.
When we have video of Jupiter from the Juno probe, the accompaniment should be Beethoven's fifth piano concerto, colloquially known as the Emperor concerto.
