2020-12-25 Celestial South Pole 01 [4K]

Did you know you cannot see this in the Northern Hemisphere?

Share it to anyone who still believe the Earth is flat!

I am a fan of conspiracy theories but this one is too obvious to solve.

OK, back to the real stuff.

Jupiter and Saturn are now close to the Sun making the time lapse video too short for them. I am still capturing photos of them to create a day-to-day time lapse video.

Shortly after they disappear I find this is also worthwhile doing - the rotation of stars around the Celestial South Pole (CSP).

240 photos were taken at 20 sec intervals gives 4800 sec or 1hr20min actual time.
Video is produced in 15 frames per sec, this gives a 16 sec play time.

It means the video you are watching is 300 times faster than actual.

Not long enough, right? I'll make it longer next time.

The famous Southern Cross appears at the later part of the video.
