These new galaxy fountains are truly amazing! What you can't see are the beautiful iridescent and metallic colors that are in abundance in these panels. In almost any kind of light, they scintillate. And sound! They sound like a brook, or a stream, and a bit like rain. It's a very tranquil sound, not too quiet, and not Niagara. Please take particular note of the backlighting that you see on some of the fountains (the little stars or glow fireflies). These optional ''stars'' are a new high-tech strand of rice lights that put out virtually no heat, are literally the size of grains of rice, and last for a long, long time.
