Earth's Rotation Visualized in a Timelapse of the Milky Way Galaxy - 4K

A timelapse of the Milky Way that was recorded using an equatorial tracking mount over a period of around 3 hours to show Earth's rotation relative to the Milky Way.


Here we have a video with a difference which is usually a good thing. In this case it most definitely is.
In video's like this we always see the sky rotating to a stabilised Earth. This time its the sky that is still. The Milky Way to be precise.

Its only 55 seconds long so give it a look you'll be glad you did.

Absolutley beautiful.
I never really get to see the milkyway where I live because of light pollution,but when I saw it clearly for the first time from high in the Himalayas it was beyond breathtaking.
It was like that video,but seeing it in real life gives you a real sense of being a tiny tiny part of something infitite and beautiful(and somehow quite terrifying at the same time..maybe Ive read too much Lovecraft).

The first time I was able to see the River of Heaven, my wife and I were at sea in a small boat. It was a cool, quiet night. The video triggered a wonderful memory. Thank you.

Beautiful video but the bats fluttering at the bottom almost caused me to break my monitor swatting at the sudden "gnat" swarm.

That would be an airplane.
The video is sped up, see how fast everything is rotating?
