Anyone see this Milky Way video?
It's catching fire on the web. Apparently, it was recorded over 1 week on Spain's highest mountain, then time-lapsed forward to make this short video. It's amazing seeing the stars roll by. So high up you can get a feel for the spherical shape of the earth too. Just how tiny we are in comparison to awesomeness of the universe.

Very cool, and kinda trippy when you consider that relatively speaking, the stars are motionless to us, its the Earth rolling through space that gives them movement.

The Mountain on Vimeo. Found a better, higher quality version. It's truly stunning, this video especially in HD I think makes the difference here. From the photographer: Quote:
