For a moment I was thrown, but then I remembered seeing your notice post about the name change. :)

It looks fantastic - especially when you're aware that the landscape is basically shaped like the inside of a cat tire, for example. The hug cables that you see are like spokes of a wheel. The whole thing is a living organism, her name is Gaea, and she orbits Saturn. There are other beings that live inside her and that she basically created through genetic engineering. What you saw flying is a kind of a humanoid with wings called an angel, though it's nothing like an angel of religion. And I don't know if you noticed the person in the serape, but she's one of the main characters called Cirocco Jones, captain of a NASA spaceship that was on a research mission to Saturn.
Then there are Titanides:
