We’re 99% certain this is the most beautiful footage of Earth’s auroras yet recorded:
Boy howdy, this video definitely confirms that if you’re going to gaze at our planet, the International Space Station is the best seat in the house. This video was shot during Expeditions 28 and 29 aboard the ISS from August-October of this year. Time to pretend you’re an alien fleet joy-riding through the Milky Way.
A Beautiful Glimpse of the Milky Way From Spain’s Tallest Mountain:
Certainly, Norwegian photographer Terje Sorgjerd has a talent for capturing the awe-inspiring. Taken on El Teide in the Canary Islands, this time lapse captures the Milky Way galaxy overhead as sand wafts across the landscape as gold clouds. [The Awesomer][gizmodo]
This was filmed between 4th and 11th April 2011. I had the pleasure of visiting El Teide.
Spain´s highest mountain @(3715m) is one of the best places in the world to photograph the stars and is also the location of Teide Observatories, considered to be one of the world´s best observatories. [Via: Vimeo]
This is an old video but it popped up again on Urlesque, and I never get tired of hearing it. Put down your drink before you splash your keyboard!
