- The 2017 total solar eclipse from space filmed on board a high altitude weather balloon. The Great American Eclipse was filmed above Wyoming for the BBC series Earth From Space. We launched a high altitude weather balloon filled with helium to an altitude exceeding 50km, timing the apex of the flight to coincide with totality.

Using a series of cameras aligned with nanometre precision, we filmed 360 degrees of footage for three hours from launch. On landing, we stitched the footage together and digitally stabilised the footage frame by frame to artificially lock the viewer perspective on the horizon, cropping down to a traditional 16:9 ratio. Finally, we speed-ramped the footage to create the world's first hyperlapse of a solar eclipse from space.
Launched alongside NASA experimental flights the space flight lasted around 3hrs in total from launch to landing capturing the eclipse as it traveled across the USA.

Sent Into Space are the Near Space experts.
We use lighter-than-air gas balloons to travel to the upper stratosphere into Near Space, where you can see the curvature of the Earth (Flat Earth believers need not reply!), the black vacuum of space and the thin blue line of the Earth's atmosphere on the horizon.
This is more than just a GoPro on a weather balloon. We build a bespoke launch vehicle for each flight utilising the latest in camera technology and long-range radio and satellite communications. We film HD video of the Earth from space for stunning images of the curvature of the Earth.

Thank you!
I subed to you with notifications!!! I’m very big fan
Hello everyone, this is YOUR daily dose of interesting
Yo
Your welcome
aye
The first people to witness a solar eclipse must have been really freaked out.
Ha ha I bet
Ask to the Aztecs, they sacrificed human so it would never happen ever again ...
@@LittleSlimy brutal
must been something like: "Buga buya!"
First guy who witness a solar eclipse must be like:
😐
😑

240k views, this is really under rated
That is awesome! I'm sure it was an incredible amount of work. Thanks for doing this and sharing it with the world.
What ?
yeah what?
That's insane - it's almost like the earth is fucking round
well this is a fisheye lens, but yes, the earth is round
Ya and the huge fn land mass.
finally, something interesting from Wyoming 😭
Stunning!
Incredible footage
That was pretty dope
how are they gonna get there camera back
I wish you didn't speed it up once it was in space, or at least for a few minutes before the eclipse fully happened. People wanted to see it starting to block the sun not just the aftermath
Would it be possible to overlay an image grab with lines showing state borders?
good idea
Incredible video. I wish we were able to see the moon itself too
Super cool. Wonder why I haven't seen this before. Wonder what a modern 360 camera would produce. Special weather balloon? They usually burst well below this altitude.
How do you recover the camera?
Nice
what type of lens was the footage recorded with? cuz it looked like a 24-18mm at the beginning and at the end more like 8mm (fisheye)
Its not a fisheye effect, it look that way because earth is no flat, my dear flat earther.
@@aguzzic im not a flat earther wtf, earth is round yes but at 165000 feet u should only be able to see a gentle curve not a almost sphere
Great video and great flight to capture the eclipse. I was wondering where the altitude calculation of 50km came from? The best rubber balloons usually max out at 38km and the world record using an ultra-thin film plastic balloon is only 53km.
Latex balloon manufacturing has improved a lot in the past few years and we've worked directly with our manufacturer to make balloons for higher altitudes. We routinely reach altitudes exceeding 45km and 50km is doable with luck on our side, as it was on this launch. We've not recorded a flight over 51km before, but the limiting factor on the world record isn't the physical incapability of exceeding that height but the cost and practicalities of launching a balloon large enough.
what i will never understand is why the lightening zone you show for th earth (circle arc lightened) is not what we see inside earth ?
i should see the arc light when at zero altitude meter but we never see that
Did you seriously drive all that way to get the camera back omg
👑
Stunning footage.... hopefully ISS will capture some other time. :)
This is insane
I always wanna end my life exploring universe
Wow
What eclipse solar
Wow Very cool! Although how come I can't really see the moon? I wish I could!! It looks like the sun just gets darker into that little dot we see. I wish we could see the moon actually slide in front from space. Anyone know why we can't see it?
the moon is 384,400 km away, you would need to be even more deep into space to see the moon big
Because it is between us and the sun so no light is shining on the side of the moon facing us.
The distortion from the fish eye lens is laughable. 😂😂
0:20 looks like an eyeball
Can you upload the full video?
Because of the heavy amount of editing required to process this video into a viewable format, processing the entire flight as a video would take literally months of someone sat at a computer editing frame after frame. We can't do that to our poor editing team!
@@Sentintospace no worries, it would have been good to see a longer version of the video. thanks for the reply.
@@Sentintospace just upload the raw footage, whats so hard about it? drag and drop
@@Sentintospace what editing?
Plz can u do for my friend to surprise him on his birthday
Wooooowwwwwww
Is this a wide angle lens? Can't tell
It is.
Full video???
please, please, please
Unfortunately because of the way this was filmed (six cameras on different faces of a cube) and edited (hand-stitched together and reoriented to lock the orientation) it would take months to produce a full video of the flight!
@@Sentintospace raw data?
just share the raw data and someone will just do it for everybody else to watch
0:15 is that tiny dot the moon? I was hoping for much bigger. 😞
That's the sun, the moon is the big ball moving all over the place
@Dax_ no that ball moving all over the place is the weather balloon.
The moon is right in front of the sun and is blocking the sunlight. Hence the eclipse.
@@dax_9879 its reflection of sunlight ;)
Haqeeqee
The top of the screen with the erratic gray ball is a glare from the sun, since the balloon is shaking around, the dot seems to move around randomly as well. The weather balloon is not visible in the shot, and the moon is extremely hard to see in the video
Omg!
Why did the sun still appear round when the moon was in front of it? I didn’t really see a bokeh effect unless I’m wrong?
Very low quality is all. You can see it's darker in the center at 0:16 but just ever so slightly. It's pretty blurry & does just look like a dot.
@@fightme5543 I suppose, yeah…
Where is the Moon?
Câmera olho de peixe
Why did it take 2 years to put the video on UA-cam? (Do like the vid though)
I think it's because it likely took a lot of editing to remove the spinning of the balloon? They apparently "stitched the footage together and digitally stabilised the footage frame by frame."
Maybe they weren't have idea to upload it on youtube
It takes a very long time to digitally add a curve. ;)
@@sharpuslf funny. laughed.
why did they wait so long to post this
Just think of how they are going to get the camera back.
We filmed the footage for a BBC documentary series which only came out earlier this year, then we had to find the time to edit it together in this manner for public release, which took literal days of frame-by-frame editing. Basically, a combo of production schedules and a bunch of other projects going on that got in the way!
Take that flat earthers, I wonder what excuse they'd use after seeing this video?
flat earthers are irrelevant at this point
Your looking at a wide angle distorted lens image and you cant even recognize that...Take that flat earthers? This footage would be great only problem is the viewer is looking through a fish-eye distorted lens. Actually it's revealing they are being deceptive and not showing a genuine unaltered view.
crazygrunt1000
You do know that solar eclipses are impossible on the flat earth
CGI ?????
Richard Wind
Have you even seen cgi
This is obviously not cgi
They speed it why?
The shadow moves relatively slowly from this position, so creating a timelapse allows you to get a real sense of its size and how it moves across the country! You can see real-time images from the launch in the video we made with the BBC about the launch, linked in the description :)
0:12 why does the sun shrink?
Because reflected light from the moon is probably much brighter and makes the illusion that suns disappear, sorry but don't how it's called in English
And the same story when you put a brighter flashlight next to weaker one and try to make film with a camera
That's the little moon
@@chrisstofas315 are you lacking any sense? The moon is not brighter than the fucking sun man. So in your broken mind you think its brighter at night.
Because of the eclipse moron
Lmao
who came here from daily dose of internet?
Me and also are you pilipino
Show without fisheye so we can shut up flat earthers already
Plz
Daily Dose Of Internet didn’t say "Thank You!"
Hello no man
😍😍😍😍😍😁😁😁😁😁😁🤔🤔🤔🤔😁😁😁😁
all these flat earther comments make me lose hope in humanity. They are the definition of ignorance
This video has so less views,lol
Hello everyone
This is your daily dose of internet.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Now take the fish eye lense off.
Flat
Hello everyone this is your Daily Dose of Internet.
Ahahahah
I wanna see a Flat-Earther explain this
This video proves that the moon is indeed a solid object and not just a mere light in the sky and the only way you could have a shadow cast on the earth like that was if the sun was another solid object in the far distance beyond our space. This video proves space exists and therefore the round earth exists, so I’d like to see that too.
they cant
Nice lens distortion...Why not show the earth how it actually appears instead of being deceptive... Just a thought.
Do you know what purpose does the lens distortion serve?
AlexFranma Sure, it’s a cheap trick to turn the plane horizontal horizon into a curve earth. Fantasy ball. Why would they do that? Hmmmm
@@crazygrunt1000 Again, asnwer my question. Do. you. know. What purpose does the Fish-eye lens serve on GoPros.
@@alanfranWide angle view. It's clear they want to force curve and you clearly don't get it...Remove lens and reveal the true image. No curve detected.
@@crazygrunt1000 Dude you are not answering my question, you are avoiding it completely, why do you think the Fish-Eye len is useful to record sporting.
This is what a solar eclipse is all about: Read the Bible, on Luke 21, chapter 25-38.
Fake
FAKE!
What ?
No stars ?
I call bs
Point your camera at one flashlight and see if it records any light source behind
The sun is brighter than the stars, so the camera couldnt take much light from star
@@alvinxyz7419 Nah, he will just say it is cgi, photoshop n some shit like tht.
Kingリンク When the sun is blocked? Its probably just the camera
Who came here cuz of D.D.O.I?
