Someone Managed To Zoom In On The Moon And It Is Mesmerizing
To us, mere mortals, the moon is just a round of cheese that glows super bright in the night sky (and sometimes during dusk hours). But technology goes forward and right now, if you have the cash, you can purchase a super awesome digital camera that can pass over the 239,000 miles between the Moon and us, so that you can take a selfie with it! Telescopes are so overrated.
Nikon just released its COOLPIX P900 camera with a zoom so powerful, <a href="https://rumble.com/v3rh2h-nikon-p900-to-the-moon.html" target="_blank">you can see craters on the moon's surface</a>. Let us remind you that the moon is close to 239,000 miles from Earth.
You can see the actual holes on the moon's surface where it's been hit by asteroids and comets thanks to the cameras 83x zoom. It's so powerful you can even watch the moon move across the sky as Earth rotates. The second most remarkable feature about that camera is that image is surprisingly stable for such an extreme zoom.
If you don’t feel uncomfortable enough just yet, how about checking out this clip of the <a href="https://rumble.com/science/v73-moon-saturn-occultation-22-feb-2014.html" target="_blank">Moon zoomed in and passing in front of super tiny Saturn</a>. The clip has been recorded just as the Moon passes right in front of the ringed planet, eventually covering the sight of it.
The Moon (or Luna) is the Earth's only natural satellite and was formed 4.6 billion years prior around some 30– 50 million years after the arrangement of the nearby planetary group. The Moon is in the synchronous pivot with Earth meaning a similar side is continually confronting the Earth.
As the full moon approaches, its growing brightness tends to capture our attention. This video is super mesmerizing and incredible to watch! We have never seen such a thrilling video of the Moon, and it makes us watch it all day! We are lost for words!
For all the selenophilefs out there we decided to share some cool facts about the Moon that will make you love it even more! Did you know that the Moon is slowly drifting away from the Earth? Consistently, the Moon moves generally 3.8 cm further far from Earth. Logical appraisals propose this will keep on occurring for 50 billion years. By then, the Moon will take 47 days to circle the Earth, contrasted with the present time of 27.3 days.

Super Powerful Camera Makes Saturn Visible For A Naked Eye
There are only a select few times when we can actually view the planet Saturn from Earth. This rare occurrence is one that millions of people all around the world gather to see. With the naked eye, the planet looks similar to the other stars in the night sky from Earth. Because of this, it can be difficult to determine exactly where Saturn is or which of the glowing orbs it is. This is when the news and the Internet become imperative to experiencing the spectacle.
There are sites that can be visited that will tell a viewer exactly when to look for <a href="https://rumble.com/v3b6u4-time-lapse-of-saturn-and-the-moon-crossing-paths.html" target="_blank">Saturn</a> and where to look for it. Be sure, though, that you are paying attention to what particular time zone you are in when trying to find out the time and place to look for Saturn. You will also need to know what part of the sky to examine. This will all depend on where you are in the world at the moment.
Humans have long been fascinated with space and all of the wondrous sites present in the beautiful night sky each and every night. Since the astrological chartings that were made hundreds of years ago, people have looked up at the black depth above our planet and wondered and dreamed about what could be “out there.” Seeing another planet in the sky is an event that everyone should experience at some point in their lifetime. This particular video is interesting because it shows the viewer exactly what this planet will look like when trying to find it in the sky at night from Earth.
The video is a little different and may seem a little strange at first. This is because the entire video consists of what looks to be just a <a href="https://rumble.com/v69zab-eerie-moment-driver-captures-ghostly-orb-floating-on-a-dark-country-road-in.html" target="_blank">floating orb</a> of light on a black screen. However, graphics are not what should be the focus here. What is interesting and “cool” is the fact that it is not a star; it is a planet. When viewers watch this video, they should try to actively remember and think about the fact that this little floating orb of light on their computer screens is an actual planet, and it is millions and millions of miles away. It is shocking to imagine being able to actually visually see something with your own eyes that is thousands or millions of miles away from where you are.
It is even more shocking when you can see something that far away without any help of a telescope or other form of technology. Obviously, the viewing experience is going to be better and more detailed with a telescope, but it is interesting either way. The person who recorded the video zooms in and out from the planet Saturn so that viewers can see what it looks like with the naked eye. Zooming in allows us to see what the planet looks like in just a little bit more detail. Don’t forget to subscribe to Rumble and join the community!

Super Zoom Captures Incredible Details On The Moon's Surface
Ah, the Moon. The only natural satellite our Earth has and the subject of great controversy. The Moon is in a synchronous rotation with our planet, which means the same side is always facing the Earth. The first unmanned mission to the Moon was in 1959 by the Soviet Lunar Program with the first manned landing being Apollo 11 in 1969. The dark side of the Moon has been known to spark lots of controversial topics, because we can never see it. Could aliens set up base there? Or is it just dark and desolate?
The <a href="https://rumble.com/v32dt9-the-moon-landing-conspiracy-unexplained-objects-2.html" target="_blank">Moon landing</a> has also been subjected to divided opinions, and there are lots of people out there that believe that the landing never occurred and everything was filmed in a movie studio. Scientists, of course, don't agree with this because, well, it's just not true.
Then there are the <a href="https://rumble.com/v3eg80-we-believe-the-earth-is-flat-conspiracies-uncovered.html" target="_blank">"flat earthers"</a> that think the Moon is just an illusion, much like the rest of the universe, but this beautiful celestial body is real and it is very interesting to study. We can see the Moon with our bare eye, but if we want to take a closer look we have to use some equipment. In this case, the man filming the Moon is using the super zoom of a Nikon P900, and we have to admit, it captures the Moon's beauty in a magnificent way.

Beautiful Sunset Casts Red And Pink Colors
Check out this spectacular footage of a sunset that dazzles with both red and then pink coloring. How cool is that?
The purple evening glow will certainly remain in the memory of almost any person who had the chance to observe it. After all, this is what has been the kernel or many an artist light-motif and what photographers strive to capture better in their collections. And why is the sun red at sunset but never again during the day? This is what people of all ages and od all periods have asked.
One of the distinguishing features of a person is <a href="https://rumble.com/v4s7b1-s3-ep46-the-power-of-curiosity.html" target="_blank">curiosity</a>. Probably everyone, as a child, looked up at the sky and wondered: "Why is the sky blue?". As it turns out, the answers to such seemingly simple questions require some knowledge base in the field of physics, and therefore not every parent can correctly explain to the child the cause of this phenomenon.
Consider this issue from a scientific point of view.
It is scientifically proven that the sun does not have a certain color. And its rays are composed of many tones. The length of each electromagnetic wave corresponds to a certain color. The eyes of a human, according to this length, distinguish between tones and semitones. The thickness, as well as the density of atmospheric air, directly affect the overall color of the rays. But not everything is so simple.
The range of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation covers almost the entire spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, into which the radiation visible to man also enters. The image below shows the dependence of the solar radiation intensity on the wavelength of this radiation.
Analyzing this image, one can note the fact that visible radiation is also represented by an uneven intensity for radiation of different wavelengths. So a relatively small contribution to visible radiation gives a violet color, and the largest is blue and green.
When the Sun hides over the horizon, we can observe the long-wave radiation of red-orange color. In this case, the light from the Sun must pass a much greater distance in the Earth's atmosphere before it reaches the eye of the observer. In a place where the radiation of the Sun begins to interact with the atmosphere, the most pronounced are blue and blue. However, with distance, the short-wave radiation loses its intensity, as it diffuses considerably along the way. While longwave radiation does an excellent job of overcoming such large distances. That's why the sun is red at sunset.
As mentioned before, although long-wave radiation is slightly scattered in the air, nevertheless scattering takes place. Therefore, being on the horizon, the Sun emits light, from which only the emission of red-orange shades reaches the observer, which diffuses somewhat in the atmosphere, forming the previously mentioned "wandering" light. The latter and colors the sky in mottled shades of red and orange.
If you are not much of a science fuff but you do have the romantic inclination and want to observe nature and its movements, do look at the following video. It shows a <a href="https://rumble.com/v67oyp-beautiful-minnesota-timelapse.html" target="_blank">beautiful time-lapse footage of Northern Minnesota</a>.
Clouds seem to take on a life of their own in this time-lapse landscape drama from Minnesota. Where still life painters capture a single frame of the essence of a scene, in this dynamic interlude we see that the only thing that doesn’t change is change itself. The earth breathes, moves, is alive.
The colors and shades are very subtle. Maybe some of us are drawn to different parts of the composition. I like the clouds, with their creamy textures and variation from white to dark gray. You may be drawn to the water, with its moving surface that reflects the sky. We see that the lake even seems to move more quickly than the sky reflected upon its surface. Sunlight spray paints the green trees on the horizon, which was green, then wan black, according to the whims of the moving clouds.
