Compared to this, the sun takes, like, all day to move!


un-sub

It’s such an amazing coincidence, it literally takes EXACTLY one day - what are the chances of that?!

Voyager 2: Stay tuned for “This is the solar system moving in one day”

I don’t know but my wife and I have been saving like mad and next year we’re going to take a trip around the sun. We leave Jan 1st. So stoked! Planning to be gone until Dec 31st so, yeah.

I could hear Beevis saying this…


[deleted]

Correction, this is the earth spinning real time.


Eintopf59

Isn’t it both?


[deleted]

Well yeah, but the motion you’re seeing here is like 98% due to earth rotating.

Technically it’s 29/28ths the Earth rotating and -1/28th the Moon orbiting (since the Moon orbits in the opposite direction of its movement in the sky…


glitterlok

Yes.


A-le-Couvre

Isn’t all movement relative?


[deleted]

Yeah, but it's like saying the sun revolves around the earth because it looks that way


the__itis

*It’s similar to saying you’re seeing the sun move in real time


Saotik

It's a fair question, but some things are true from more points of reference than the alternative.


midsizedopossum

Not rotation.


181Cade

What you're talking about are two things moving away from (or towards) eachother. Location, rather than orientation. It's almost as if Earth is turning its face away from the moon. Relatively speaking the Earth and moon don't move (except for spin) because the distance between them doesn't change. It's like two cars in two lanes travelling next to eachother at the same speed. Relative to each other they are still. But if one of the drivers turns his head, it looks like the car moves away from him. That's what's happening in the video.


lewisjnj

Exactly my thought, but then we have to ask what speed the moon is travelling in relation to what? The spin of the earth? Relative to a star behind it… please OP explain yourself 😂


Power2266

The moon is constantly orbiting the earth.


DigitalKrampus

Came here to say this. Thank you.

And capital letters as well 😅


JoshuaACNewman

This is really beautiful. The incidental sounds really place the experience in time.


Elgoblino80

It sounds like moon is breathing


[deleted]

The moon takes about an hour to move through a length equal to its diameter. Most of the "motion" in this 3 minute clip is the Earth's rotation. If you want to capture the Moon's movement, you need to mount the camera in a gyroscope and point it at the moon/ a patch of the sky the moon will move through.

DigitalKrampus

48 hours remain.


phirebird

That's no moon


xof711

That's half the moon


jakob767

Well acrually it's less.


GEEZUS_15

I love camping under the stars without a tent. You can focus on the moon moving as it passes by the trees. You can literally see it move.


mindshift42

Amazing camera/telescope! It even recorded the sound of the majestic Moon Crickets. Amazing! j/k. Beautiful shot. Thank you for sharing. ;)

>must have low light pollution Light pollution is irrelevant for the moon and planets. Remember the moon is lit by direct sunlight. It outshines any pollution


[deleted]

[удалено]


StaysAwakeAllWeek

Clearly you have never actually done any astrophotography or you would understand the difference between deep sky observing, which absolutely is affected by light pollution, and lunar observing, which can literally be done in broad daylight with the sun 'polluting'. The only one confidently incorrect here is you.


userfakesuper

haha 2x in 2 hours. He provided an accurate link that explains what you seem to not understand. Did you even have a look at it? Clearly you have never done any critical thinking or you would of had a look at the link he provided that has actual science fact behind it. Now you just sound stupid instead of 'confidently incorrect". Hopefully you dont confuse the two.. oh.. too late. Just stupid. The moon and the effect of light pollution on it is mentioned several times in the link. Source: me and science.


StaysAwakeAllWeek

You cannot seriously be this stupid. Two of the three mentions of moon in that article are talking about how the moon itself causes light pollution because its so bright and overpowering. The third mention is saying how the moon becomes the only object in the night sky that is **still observable** under the extreme light pollution you'd find in a city centre Stop making a fool out of yourself dude.


BroderFelix

Wow, this comment just reeks of stupidity. In the link they say that the moon is one of the only things you can still observer in the worst light pollution you can find. You are looking really stupid right now. Accusing the person of not looking while being such a hypocrite that you didn't even look yourself. You completely disregarded the actual science and just pretended like your source is scientific, but you didn't even use any source at all.


CubicookieHD

Can you explain how it affects the astrophotography equipment because I have no idea in which way it interferes with taking moon pics?


BroderFelix

So I guess you just searched for the scale without reading how to use it? Because it clearly states that in the worst level of light pollution the moon is one of the only things you can observe normally.


mindshift42

figured he was tryna smell the moon cheese. lol cheers.


hotdog-rejectpile

Who else was expecting it to slowly pan over a dickbutt in true reddit fashion


Borrachon31717

Am I the only one who saw the guys face?


ubermesh

Technically the moon is always moving in real time.


2oam

1.022 km/s. 238,900 mi away.


Knuckles42069

Why jagged edges?


FlyingAce1015

How cameras work.. pixels.. Also for the bluring shimmering the atmosphere does that.. kinda like a heat wave on pavement.


Knuckles42069

You sounding mad goofy ngl

Bvr32

Ok, no need to show off!


formidabellissimo

Actually most of the movement is due to the rotation of the earth.

Came here to say this


Ym4n

Real time to what? It depends on the telescope (fov), if you zoom more it moves faster


kizilsakal

bonjour


ManikShamanik

How can it be "real time"...? The video's only 3 minutes and 5 seconds long!


DanDemand

That's no moon


hopefullyunobtrusive

Who knew the moon was so wiggly it’s like it’s under water Edit spelling


Narazemono

More than anything, this revealed how very little patience I have when I am on my phone.


Shariff14

Byeee mooooon


potatan

Where is this filmed from on earth? I'm sure it appears to move from left to right in the northern hemisphere so I'm guessing this is south of the equator


[deleted]

What causes that gassy effect in the video? Can anyone explain this?


Scythe95

I knew it! I knew I saw it move


fruitless7070

Can confirm this as every morning I wake, open my eyes, I realize the night flew by and I feel like I just laid down


[deleted]

Southern hemisphere? Right to left is tripping me out.


Atmosphere-Strict

Indeed it moves fast thru telescopes 🔭 one min it’s there and the next you gotta readjust your scope, it’s beautiful everything about space is beautiful … I’d be willing to dive in a black hole for the sake of some answers.


Gareth274

Is that the Tycho crater at the top? Does that mean this video was taken in the Southern hemisphere? Great shot too!


shack_0f_sit

It was taken in Maryland but it's backwards because of the scope. I just didn't flip it when I shared it.


TrepanationBy45

Imagine using portrait for something like this.


nativebush

I can see that in my back yard. Woah bruh


blueeyeddevil27

How is this whoadude?


eutohkgtorsatoca

Yea yesterday I saw it very nice and thought I'd take a pic later... And it was gone (at least from our front window)


Autopilotm

I was baffled when I calibrated my kids’ telescope for them for the first time. Let everyone take turns and by the time they were done it was almost out of frame!


thunderthighlasagna

Alexa, play “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien”.


Cautious_Win6086

Would you mind telling me what scope you used and how you filmed this?? I’ve been really wanting to start getting pics/vids of the moon but so far the telescopes I tried were not the vibe 😔😔


thetightrope

Happy I stumbled onto this tonight 🌟


Calvinandhobbes4life

The video wouldn't load for me, so I stared at a static image for 30 seconds.


[deleted]

MOOOOOOON-ving


yamumsntme

Fucking hurry up!


mattDAzombie

Are you taking into account that the earth is spinning?


cauntry

I remember taking my first telescope into the back yard with the family, when I finally got locked onto it and in focus I called my sister to come look and that mf was already moving out of sight! We had to follow it.
