ASTROMOVIES FOR CLOUDY NIGHTS

 

SATURN & MOONS TANGO.

Eight moons spinning around a planet at the same night, and a planet traveling with its moons among distant stars; turn this play into a unique one.  

The management of objects with very different brightnesses and distances was a true challenge.   

A full resolution original version available for free downloading to better appreciate Mimas and Encelado.

A WINDY TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE.

Real time video with the Totality Phase of a Solar Eclipse. 

 The combination of a video with magnification, and another one in wide field, of the same event placed together, plus a very happy sound capture, turn this play into a unique one; it allows a very touching event appreciation.                     

 The sound was used as reference for an efficient video matching, so both looks perfect simultaneous.

  The wide field video begins and ends with captures of the observer environment enriching the whole.                                                                                                                                                                        Find the Astromovie here : https://youtu.be/YCaK3YdTMtk

 

 

MERCURY IN TRANSIT.

Solar Transit of Mercury on 2016 and 2019.    

 The comparison between objects in the same event captured with different equipment; between the same object in different events, and between Parallax Effect images taken from the site http://www.transit-of-mercury2019.de/ by Prof. Udo Backhaus; turn this play into a unique one.

FIVE ACTS FOR A TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE.

The Eclipsed Moon is not the main protagonist in this movie; actually, the main protagonist here is… the Earth´s shadow; and this fact turns this work into a unique play; which is also the beginning of a unique project: “The 360º of the Earth´s Shadow” : https://sombratierra360grados.blogspot.com/2022_02_20_archive.html

THE GREAT CONJUNCTION.

Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturno on 2020.    

 Two planets and ten moons traveling among distant stars. 

The capture of a star field, where the objects stayed two consecutive nights, turn this play into a unique one.

THE DAY ON WHICH WE LOST MARS.

Lunar Occultation of Mars in wide field.   

 Combination of animations from different perspectives, captures with longer and shorter exposures, videos, and the magic music by Cecilia; turn this play into a unique one.

FIVE CAPTURES IN THE SAME LUNAR SPIN.

Four Moon phases in the same spin (the New Moon under earthshine, captured during a Total Solar Eclipse), expose different diameters of the object, and the Libration apparent motion, turning the play into a unique one.

GANYMEDE UNDER THE SHADOW.

The discreet charm of a Jovian Moon eclipse.

The event is discreet… and the video is unique.

SEVEN  ACTS FOR AN ANNULAR SOLAR ECLIPSE.

Captures with and without telescope, in white light and in H alpha light, animations, films, solar projection and the Solar Ecliptic Wrist Watch, turn this play into a unique one.

TRIPLE TRANSIT OF SHADOWS AND MOONS.

Triple Transit over the Jupiter Disc.     

 Complete event, plus animations at different speeds, with and without references, turn this play into a unique one. 

The Moon with weaker brightness due to its low albedo, projects the larger shadow, due to its major diameter.

WINKING STAR.

Very intuitive basic explanation of the Occultation of a Star by an Asteroid.

SUPERNOVA IN THE SUPERWIND.

Evolution of a Supernova in the Superwind Galaxy.

 Short and long exposure captures.             

 The Supernova looks brighter than the whole Galaxy in the short exposure captures.   

 The Superwind, detected in X Ray, was captured by a Telescope in Earth orbit.

TWO GLANCES AT ETA CARINAE.

 A bipolar nebula appears when the star Eta Carinae is observed with high magnification, the Homunculus Nebula, but when observed with low magnification, a great emission nebula appears, the Carina Nebula.

Two structures are identified here, visible in both cases, with high or low magnification; an asterism, the “Other Small Sagitta” and in the other hand, the face of “Lady Carina”, a woman shaped structure in the emission nebula.

NEPTUNE & TRITON WALTZ.

A complete spin of a Moon around its Planet.

The alignment of photos on distant stars; the alignment on the planet, and the exposure of just the Moon, turn this play into a unique one.

JUPITER ROTATION.

DANCING STARS : SIRIUS A & SIRIUS B

2017-2021.                                                                                                                                             Sirius A and B traveling among more distant stars in the meantime spinning around their Common Mass Center.                                                                                                                                Animations aligning objects on more distant stars, on Sirius A and on the common mass center, turn this play into a unique one.                                                                                                                        Original full resolution version available for free downloading.
