Amazing

[YodisMatt]

Love awesome photography and time lapse videos, also love images from space. Combine them together in a night time video and this is just amazing to me.

kind of puts things in perspective eh matt?

 

[problemsolverjc]

really cool..... thanks for posting!!!

 

[Sirspanksalot]

Seeing all that for yourself from space would be the most epic thing ever

 

[stukibuilt]

Wow. That's beautiful. Thanks for sharing Matt!

 

[YodisMatt]

Yeah it does Rob, just a tiny spec.

Welcome guys, if you're on FB and aren't following "I fucking love science" do so. They post some amazing things on there.

Awesome share, Matt. Sometimes, looking down on the planet is a great way to step outside your problems and get some perspective. There are 7 billion people running around on that rock. Seems huge right? Kinda makes you feel like a small part of something huge, and maybe that fight with your loved one, or that missed deadline at work, wasn't so important after all...

But then trip out on this...

If you really wanna get your mind blown, take this to the next step. After wrapping your head around that perspective you get from seeing the earth from the "god view" think about this:

That planet of ours is the third of 8 in the solar system. Our sun is one of about 200 billion in our galaxy. Our galaxy is 1 of about 500 Billion other galaxies...

Maybe all the bickering between nations isn't such a big deal? Maybe we humans think we are too big to fail, when maybe it is more like we are too small to succeed?

Thanks for sharing that!

You'll also enjoy this one, then. Terra Sacra is Sean White, one of Art Wolf's production team members. It's just outstanding but make sure you watch the HD version at full-screen.

That was a very nice video. Thanks for posting it, I sent it to my Astronomy teacher. It's not as good as simulating supernovae, but I think he'll find it interesting nonetheless.

 

[Chief StrongLeaf]

Really enjoyed both those videos, thanks guys.
Sean, this video came to mind when reading your great point:

From the micro to the macro and back again.
Ancient wisdom understood these concepts and modern science is verifying their great understanding

Awesome videos.

Love seeing the one of the earth and trying to figure out what part it is over.

 

[leafylucy]

insanely beautiful!

HOLY COW!!! This is RAD!

That is a pretty sweet video. Thanks for sharing. They look like they are going so fast.

Awesome video I want to do a time lapse when I go camping this summer hopefully i'll follow through with it.. If you love that view you should watch the movie Gravity with clooney and bullock.. I didn't think I was going to like it but shockingly I enjoyed it especially the views of the earth. They gave amazing perspectives; check it out!

Science actually agrees with religion in a lot of respects and all one has to do is lay down on a blanket outside the city...look straight up and see things that we take for granted every day. The notion that things just happened with so much order...so much intelligence behind it will make you think outside yourself. I love science and listening/watching how the Universe works...it's a design that just makes me full of wonder and excitement like a child looking at something for the first time. I'd sure hate it to think that all of this beauty came about with no grand design....how empty would our thoughts and lives be knowing that we are born and then die with nothing of value ....like a lightening bug here for a second and gone forever...there is no Grand Design behind that kind of thinking...just a vapor that appears and gone.

Let it be known, that on this day, February 27th, Cigary and I were the closest we've been in thinking since our introductions to this board.
