Time-lapse: The Sky over Siding Spring Observatory

Dear friends,

It is my pleasure to announce that the Australian Astronomical Observatory (AAO) has just created a YouTube channel and that my time-lapse video "The Sky over Siding Spring Observatory" has been released there:

Video time-lapse The Sky over Siding Spring Observatory. To enjoy it as its best, I strongly recommend you to see it at its highest resolution (FullHD) and full screen in a dark room. Credit: Video Credit: Ángel R. López-Sanchez (AAO/MQ), Music: Point of no return (Robert Subirana).

This time-lapse video, which was finished in April 2013 and has been used since then in many outreach events, show Siding Spring Observatory (Coonabarabran, NSW, Australia) as it was before the terrible bushfires that destroyed the Warrumbungle National Park and seriously affected the very same Observatory on 13th January 2013. Telescopes at Siding Spring Observatory featured include the Uppsala Near Earth Object Survey Telescope, the UNSW Automated Patrol Telescope, the 2.3m ANU Telescope, 1.2m Skymapper ANU, the 1.2m UK Schmidt Telescope (AAO) and the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT), which just turned 40 this year (actually, we have a big party there this weekend to celebrate this and the 50 anniversay of the Observatory, see http://www.starfest.org.au/).

Hello,

I subjects(submits) you a video of Uranus embellished with images in IR who reveals a thunderstorm of Uranus called(mentioned) "Keck1" because observed for the first time in August by one of the telescopes Keck.

Marc DELCROIX participated in the analysis of the images and made them follow at the Professional's.

The used material(equipment) is a Newton Skyvision 15 " to F/D 21 on Table EQ Tom O, one
CCD Manta 283, an ADC Pierro Astro and a filter IR 685 Baader.

This video consists of four images., the durations acquisitions are of 30min for every images with variants exposures of 120ms in 240ms and from 5000 to 8000 images held(retained) according to the series.
I was able to make his(her,its) observations at night from 26 till 27 September to France.

This is an animation of the Philae probe on the surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The probe is expected to land on the comet nucleus in November 2014, after being dispatched from the Rosetta mothership in orbit around the comet.

The comet is only moderately active at present, and will not reach maximum activity until its closest approach to the Sun (perihelion) in August 2015. I show the landscape not as it is at the time of the landing, but at a time closer to perihelion. Ices are sublimating from the surface and a coma has formed around the nucleus, giving the sky a hazy, yellow hue.

How on Earth do you embed YouTube?

Post by magarlick » Wed Oct 01, 2014 8:51 am

Hi

I am trying to submit a youtube video. I can't embed it. I paste the URL then add the youtube tags before and after, but when I preview I don't see the video, only the code, which isn't clickable. What am I doing wrong? The above procedure works perfectly well when embedding jpgs.

With some Googling I saw some sites suggesting you only use the bit in the URL after the equals sign, so something like

[youtube]XEXZVX2nYvs[/youtube]

But as you can see, that isn't working either.

Thanks,

Thank you. Amazed that I could find this information, which is not at all obvious, anywhere on this site.

If you hover over any of the BBCode buttons for a second or two, the help text is supposed to pop up. I know it's hidden but it is pretty easy to find by accident just from using the site, unless for some reason the text does not pop up for you.
PS, bystander, it's ok to use https too.
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.

Weird. I hovered over the Youtube BBcode and saw that the syntax was exactly as I was trying this morning, including the full URL. It wasn't working and I tried many times. Just tried it again and it works with the full video URL, https or http. Oh well. Thanks.

Waiting for the BLOOD MOON
Copyright: Marian Lucian Achim & Andrei Juravle


This animation was made in two stages and it presents the seeming motion that the Moon describes on the sky for several hours. The first stage supposed the capture of the sequences that entered in the composition of the field of stars (12 panels mosaic); the second stage was performed on the night of 7-8 October 2014 and it supposed the capture of our natural satellite-The Moon, which is found less than twelve hours before entering in the stage of total eclipse (unfortunately not visible from Romania)

Hello :)

Using high resolution lunar mosaics from amateur astronomers friends, I built these two videos simulating a flight above the pictures.
The first is from a whole last quarter Moon :



The second is from Clavius area :
