Mare Tranquillitatis (Latin for Sea of Tranquillity) is a lunar mare that sits within the Tranquillitatis basin on the Moon, once thought to be an ocean. The basin has irregular margins and lacks a defined multiple-ringed structure, likely formed as a result of a very large impact in the Moon’s early history more than 3.9 billion years ago. In February 1965, the Ranger 8 spacecraft was deliberately crashed into the Mare Tranquillitatis, after successfully transmitting 7,137 close-range photographs of the Moon in the final 23 minutes of its mission.

As beautiful as the chance encounter of Terry Riley and Beverly Hills Cop on an operating table.

Tender and contemplative, Röuga provides a departure from the daily battle ground that is life. Warm and comforting, leaning toward the melancholy, Cavallari’s gently delayed out slide guitar washes over you like the last amber days of a dying summer, while its repetitive theme, gently yet faithfully, soldiers on promising the hope of a new tomorrow.
