    Scene notes:

    Air and spacecraft as well as meteorites. The galaxy we reside in is observable when the moon is thin and has set, and clouds are not present. Seen from within, out galaxy looks different than the others- but ours is a pinwheel shaped galaxy like so many others.

    Scene notes:

    The night sky, with the Milky Way running diagonal (top-left to bottom-right). The scene includes both manmade and natural phenomena in the sky. Every star of light in front of the dust clouds of the galaxy are physically closer to us than the dust clouds. Coma and light pollution is low/very low.

    10 seconds and 27 frames.

    Scene notes:

    Deep in the desert next to a small face of rocks and stone, jaggedly sticking out into the backdrop of stars. The crop moves to enlarge the galactic cloud slightly. The very faint light pollution in the distance does not intrude into the sky’s features. A variety of objects can also be observed in the night sky.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    14 seconds and 25 frames.
