Great video, thank you!

[@tangsolaris9533]

Bravo!

I happened to already know this one. It's wild how astrophysics works!

[@WaskiSquirrel]

This is awesome! I knew it was a figure 8 because of my study of astronomy. But to see it actually verified in pictures was amazing!
I actually tried doing something like this once with an 8th grade class and marking shadows. The results were a failure: too many 14-year-old experimenters who were not consistent.

Yeah, it took us a few tries before we figured out a way to mount the camera that was reproducible enough from one day to the next.
