There’s a whole bunch of videos on the internet involving timelapses of the stars, and they’re quite something. Aryeh Nirenberg has flipped the script, however. He made a stunning video showcasing the Earth’s rotation wherein the Milky Way stays totally still.

That. Is. So. Cool. 

…ends up as this. It’s so surreal it’s almost dizzying!

Nirenberg employed a Sony a7SII with the Canon 24-70mm f2.8 lens while using an equatorial tracking mount over a period of three hours to achieve this. His starscapes and natural vista shots are pretty stunning even if they’re not in video form.

But you have to admit, these videos are something else.
