360 VR Hyperlapse | Sunset in Space in 5.2K 360°

What does a sunset look like in space? This incredible 360° hyperlapse shows you just that for the very first time. We launched a 360° camera into near space over the UK, flying over 120,000 feet (36.5km) above the Earth, and timed the flight to reach apogee during the final moments of the sun setting. Taking that footage and painstakingly stitching and repositioning each frame to lock the horizon in place produces this 360° 'hyperlapse', a timelapse in motion.

This video is the follow-up to our world-first 360° space hyperlapse, found at

Sent Into Space are the Near Space experts.

We use lighter-than-air gas balloons to travel to the upper stratosphere into Near Space, where you can see the curvature of the Earth (Flat Earth believers need not reply!), the black vacuum of space and the thin blue line of the Earth's atmosphere on the horizon.

This is more than just a GoPro on a weather balloon. We build a bespoke launch vehicle for each flight utilising the latest in camera technology and long-range radio and satellite communications. We film HD video of the Earth from space for stunning images of the curvature of the Earth.

With over 500 successful flights over the last 8 years, we're the only company to go to when you want to launch something into space. To find out more, visit https://www.sentintospace.com
