SOUTH POLE | ANTARCTICA 8K60
Фильм және анимация
Filming at the South Pole during the polar night is pretty much as hard as it gets. Temperatures below -70°C/-95°F are not uncommon. Cables break like spaghetti, LCD displays freeze up even electronic components stop working.
Cameras always have to be heated, motion control gear modified and setups made storm-proof.
Many of the shots in the video have been recorded for 24h or more to capture a full revolution of the earth spinning once around its axis.
Shot by Benjamin Eberhardt, experiment operator and astrophysicist at the IceCube Neutrino telescope at the the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. He spent a full winter at the pole with over a year spent on the ice.

FAQ: there is ZERO air-traffic over the south pole. The streaks you can see are for the most part satellites on polar orbits.
It literally stops me dead in my tracks whenever the moon or stars are visible. I always sit there and stare, constantly telling myself those are real places. Places with matter, sound, smells and moving all in one. Whenever I see these distant notes of light, I'm always put at ease knowing that the world is still there, and as long as there are stars in the sky, there is hope for tomorrow. Even if we perish, life may continue on somewhere else.

@@am3818 "If we really are on a ball spinning throughout the universe why do the stars stay in the same place?" - Because they are exremely far away and rotating around the center of the galaxy with us. - "Why did the builders of the suez and panama canal never account for the curvature of the earth?" Why would you? If you dig a a canal the surface accounts for the curvature already. "How come my helicopter pilot friend was NEVER taught to account for the curvature of the earth?" - Because you don't need to correct for the curvature as gravity is constantly pulling you down, no matter where you are. There are your answers. You will say it's all a lie and that I am paid. Well actually I could use some money so NWO if you read this, I could use some money and not do this for free.
I got goosebumps. That is my no. 1 on my bucket list. I just googled to see if anyone has ever filmed the stars and night sky just... rotating round and round in circles, from the very bottom viewpoint and perspective of a spinning ball, Antarctica. Laying on your back for hours just staring at it, now thats something to live for. Add on top of that experience, the Aurora Australis as well. Like I said, GOOSEBUMPS. And I would take this over the north pole any day.
Great job Benjamin and Martin! Amazing to see the lights with the milky way

Something you don't get in the northern hemisphere. I've seen the northern lights and this surpasses those by far. At another level. Wished I could travel someday and see them.
oh Ben! thanks so much.. even at 68 I get caught up so much in the hustle and bustle of life around me I forget to just stop.. and smell the roses as it were... What a beautiful planet we have here... Thanks for reminding me ... again!
So amazing to see the core of the milkyway combined with the Aurora Australis, simply stunning!!
These fantastic time-lapses give us a hint of what humankind is missing with our insane light pollution, both from the ground and, lately, from offending satellite networks. As stardust, but with a conscience, we are literally losing the sight of our local Universe, which holds both our past, where we came from, and our future, where we'll all go back to, either to survive as a species or as stardust.

Just speechless... I can't believe there can be such wonders on Earth
Thank you for reminding me that we live on a planet - an amazing, living, breathing planet.
Absolutely stunning. The colours at 1:43 are breathtakingly beautiful.

I want to go there now. I just gotta see this in my lifetime.
- Video? - Amazing. - Music? - Perfect
The real Milky Way band and its core! Totally amazing.Dream!
SPE... SPE... SPECTACULAR TO THE POINT OF STAMMERING!! 8K60 CERTAINLY DEMAND A POWERFUL COMPUTER AND A VERY BIG SCREEN.
Speechless... This is pure art of time-lapse photography that everyone must see. We know how much effort is necessary for time-lapse project, but this is beyond reality... Congrats from bottom of my heart! You are genius!
This is absolutely stunning! One of the best aurora films ever. Would love to see what ended up on the cutting room floor, with timestamps, for research.
This planet amaze me by its creativity, I m happy being here.
Wow, I mean, I've seen a lot of timelapses, but this one gave me that feeling of wonder all over again. Milky Way with Aurora! I don't think you can see this from the Northern Hemisphere. Incredible work!

And the Southern lights seem much more spectacular than those in the north. Been to Lapland and it wasn't as impressive as this. And you have to be very lucky to see them.
Sincerest thanks for sharing this remarkable video of a timeless place. May it forever be free of human influence
Amazing to see all these stars, realizing they are all suns for maybe other planets out there. It would wonder me if no one would ever grown kind of intelligent life on them. What a beautiful world we are living in, all the frozen water there, all the solar-winds causing these amazing auroras.... Hope your Timestorm films will make people think more about all these wonders of the Universe....

Many other suns and many other inhabited planets across the infinite sea. The ice that you see is heaven's storehouse, it was held in suspension before earth's axis was altered. :)
Dude I cried, so much that's beautiful !
Very creative the way you kept the target on the surface and let the sky rotate.... then kept the target on the milky way and let the earth rotate.... absolutely spectacular... wow.
One of the reasons I love Antarctica so
Wahnsinn!!! Ich wusste gar nicht das es blaues Polarlicht gibt. Das sind erstklassige Aufnahmen - typisch TIMESTORM
Hello ! I m French and my English is very bad sorry :) but personnaly, your vidéo are very amazing, wonderful...i love your project. I follow you since 5 years and i m always choqued for the quality and the beauty of the video Keep going to work guys, you are very talentued ;)

I'm overwhelmed with emotions of gratitude 😔 , to be alive to see this video . Wow! Thank you Timestorm.
Einfach nur geil. Danke für dieses atemberaubende Video. LG Mathias
It has an alien feel to it, wonderfully done , Orion hidden above the belt. top
Very beautiful! Reminds me of home.
Notice at the South Pole that the stars never "set" below the horizon. The sky turns in a clockwise direction. The stars never set below the horizon at the North Pole as well and the sky turns in a counter-clockwise direction.

@@schmeegil2240 From the vantage point of someone standing o the ground of course. Its due to the Earth's rotation. As the Earth turns on its axis, the sky "moves" counter to the rotation. From the vantage point of someone at the North Pole, the sky appears to move from left to right, looking at the horizon. Looking directly above, the sky seems to revolve around the star Polaris and seems to revolve in a counter-clockwise direction ("anti-clockwise" as they say in the UK). The opposite happens at the South Pole.

Simply amazing, I've watched it several times today.
Is that beautifulness even possible?
Incredible and breath taking shots. It is really great to see this video. I can understand that from a pure technical point due to the extreme low temperatures and long sequence times you have to have experience of how operate technology under these circumstances. Congratulations to Benjamin Eberhardt for this footage and composition and also for timestormfilms to produce it in this way. I also enjoy that this film was taken by a person who is already at this place and not traveling just and only for such pictures. So I can enjoy even more. Best regards Jens
Just wonderful! Thank you! Saw the Northern lights last year up in the Arctic circle. Not a patch on our own aurora. Jenny
It’s a fantastic video. The Mother Earth protects us. We must protect the Mother Earth so. Great job.
One more amazing work. Thank you.
Absolutely stunning. Made my day.
I AM GRATEFUL, I LIVE TO WATCH THIS MAGNIFICENT VIDEO. THANK YOU AND TEAM.

Spectacularly beautiful. Thank you.

Thank you, i didn't beleave such beautiness could be possible. I hope once in my life can witness that and realize with humble the insignificance of our lives.
Feels otherworldly with the green hues in the sky! ❤️
There is literally nothing existing that is as stunning and beautiful as the Nature itself.

La perfection! Une video puissante, juste, un travail exceptionnel! MERCI
the blue and purple Aurora was EPIC I bet the journey to capture this was also EPIC
And again i am transported to a distant place of Extraordinarily profound beauty to view something i would never have seen if it weren't for your breathtaking timelapse films...my tears confuse me as i cannot decide whether they come from observing something so lovely or whether it is because once again through a shared experience i am connected to my special friend so very far away, we both enjoy these movies so very much, it brings us closer each time, a connection that transends the boundries of this and other platforms of communication, through means of your film you tie two souls together...yes its a thing of beauty Thank You Martin and Ben, you did it again❣️
Majestically Mesmerizing
That is freaking crazy. Absolutely brilliant.
Beyond Awesomeness and Spectacularity

Beautiful thanks
Wow, this is phenomenal Martin. The dedication and artistry seen in this timelapse film is a gift to all. If this doesn't make someone appreciate more our little blue ball in space then nothing will penetrate the pop culture distracted minds.
It’s so beautiful. I wanna go there one day!
