Very nice, Lorenzo. I remember last year's. Seems like you may have gained some extra friends. BigDob looks like it gives at least one guy a good amount of exercise. And you all seem to drive the same car...

Sunsets - Time lapse video

Hi,

from some of my films, I have specially filtered sunsets. You can see the green and the blue flash. Recorded were the pictures on La Palma, Canary Islands.

Have fun.

Hi,

actually it should be a ISON observations on La Palma. The weather was bad and only a starry night.

Over 100,000 asteroids and their colors, as seen by a single remarkable survey telescope.

This animation shows the orbital motions of over 100,000 of the asteroids observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), with colors illustrating the compositional diversity measured by the SDSS five-color camera. The relative sizes of each asteroid are also illustrated.

All main-belt asteroids and Trojan asteroids with orbits known to high precision are shown. The animation is rendered with a timestep of 3 days.

The compositional gradient of the asteroid belt is clearly visible, with green Vesta-family members in the inner belt fading through the blue C-class asteroids in the outer belt, and the deep red Trojan swarms beyond that.

Occasional diagonal slashes that appear in the animation are the SDSS survey beams; these appear because the animation is rendered at near the survey epoch.

The average orbital distances of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Jupiter are illustrated with rings.

Colors represented with the same scheme as Parker et al. (2008) http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/bib_q ... :0807.3762

Very cool, Alex. Now all we need is a stereoscopic version!

Giant arc flare near AR 11987 - 23/feb/2014 13:12h TU

Today I was alerted of one big arc evolving very fast and bright. With almost no time to prepare all the equipment I was able to take this terrific picture.

PST, DMK618 and EQ mount. Procesing software: Registax 6, PixInsigh Core and Gimp.

After analyzing the source video captured, I noticed the very fast movement of the flare going back to the Sun surface at an incredible high speed.

Video is a 2000 frames @ 60fps, around 2:15' of live video. Captured video was accelerated 10x (600fps) and repeated three times to better observe the movement of the arc flare (right side of the arc) falling into Sun surface (better seen at full screen).

Corfu Nightscapes - A Company of Stars, 4Κ-Timelapse, Music: John Miliadis

A company of stars, ~60,000 images of magical nightscapes of Corfu by Vasilis Metallinos paired with John Miliade's musical creations on a journey from the old Fortress and the beauty of Corfu to the Full Moon and to the Stars!
If in some shots you can see the Moon or the Sun bigger, while in some other shots smaller it has to do with the magnification of the telescope or lens. In shots where the moon looks huge, the distance from the ground target is very large ~ 8+ km , while the photographs is through the telescope with a focal length of 1000 mm. When you see the moon rising behind the Old Fort, while the mountains in the distance of up to up change is because the moon moves along the ecliptic ± 5 °.
In shots with stellar tracks , you can notice the movement that make stars, which essentially is the Earth that revolves around itself with speed 1674.4 km . / Hr. In fact , the rotation period of the Earth around its axis is 23 hours , 56 minutes and 4.09 seconds and called stellar day . Thus observing the Earth from celestial bodies , the main apparent motion is from east to west with a speed of 15 ° / h = 15 ' / min or for example a solar or lunar diameter every two minutes .

Aurora, winter season from aurora village,
Yellowknife, Canada.
2009~2014.

Compare time-lapse and real-time aurora taken at the same time.
time-lapse (03:01~) vs real-time (01:52~)

I think real-time is less bright and less color than naked eye.
But time-lapse is more bright and more color than naked eye.
So real feeling is between the real-time and time-lapse.
